Owner's Description

Issue #79 features appearances by Sub-Mariner and Red Skull. Our WP 9.8 comes from the Pacific Coast Collection, which is generally to be considered the greatest Silver Age collection to ever surface. It was brought to market by Robert Roter after he discovered portions of it for sale on eBay in 1999. The books were marketed through PCE over the next several years and contained over 7,000 comics and magazines that included Marvel, DC, and Gold Key among others, covering a time span between 1961 and 1977. Many of the highest graded Marvel and DC issues from the early '60s hail from this collection with exceptional page quality. The books do not exhibit any distinguishing markings.

The book was also a part of the Doug Schmell Collection auctioned off on Heritage July 2012, and is one of three highest graded copies. We acquired the book in the 3/19/2013 CL Auction.

2023 Update: And now there are four…..
