This puts my CGC 5.5 SC #37 to shame!

There is no shame in a lower grade copy if you love it!

Tales to Astonish #49 former PGX NM- 9.2 with off-white pages: $1,375

1st app. Giant-Man. Great centering on this copy with a full Giant-Man's right foot

I did crack the book out of its slab and it is now raw and sitting in a Mylar but kept the label and it will be included with the book. However, I cannot show it here in order to comply with Board rules.

Also, the book was sold to me as originating from the Cleveland collection with a certificate although I have no proof of that and the issue number is not written in the certificate but it will also be included with the book for what it worth.

Finally, I think that this book has been pressed.
