Owner's Description

Silver Surfer, Galactus and Psycho-Man are all featured in Issue #76. Our highest graded 9.8 comes from the Rocky Mountain Collection. The Rocky Mountain pedigree was assigned to a large Marvel and DC Silver Age collection originally auctioned by Comiclink in 2008. The Spider-Man, Fantastic Four and X-men runs were first auctioned without pedigree, but due to high collector interest the decision was made by CGC to classify the collection as a pedigree. Subsequently those three runs were retroactively given the Rocky Mountain notation. Hailing from Colorado, the collection numbered around 5,000 books, initially stored in a basement in similar conditions to the Mile High collection. None of the books exhibit identifying marks, but are easily traceable back to Comiclink.

Our 9.8 is tied with 10 others atop the census as of May 2020, so this one is not rare. We acquired it in the November 19, 2015 Heritage auction.

2024 Update: Talk about not rare, there are now 14 9.8s, glad ours is at least a pedigree.
