Owner's Description

Another cover featuring Galactus, Silver Surfer and Johnny Storm heading to college. This issue also features the first appearance of Wyatt Wingfoot. Our 9.6 features white pages and comes from the Twin City Collection. The Twin Cities Collection was the product of Gary Dahlberg who spent his life carefully buying, reading and storing comic books away throughout the '60s and '70s, with aspirations to become a cartoonist one day. Sadly, he died in a fire in 2010, but to the astonishment of his family his collection was appraised at more than $1 million by Heritage, who auctioned the books in 2011. Consisting of mainly Marvel and DC, this accumulation has no identifying marks but yielded some of the highest grades of the early Marvel period with considerably high page quality. The collection ultimately brought over $2.4 million at auction.

The book is tied for second highest graded trailing three 9.8s, none of which was have ever seen, in the census. We acquired our book in a book swap with another collector in 2018.
