Owner's Description

Issue #92 features a Silver Surfer appearance. Our WP 9.8 comes from the Rocky Mountain Collection. The Rocky Mountain Collection 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.

The book was also from the prestigious Doug Schmell Collection auction on July 26, 2012 by Heritage. We acquired the book on the ComicConnect Exchange on 2/26/2018. It is one of five 9.8s in the census as of June 2024.
