Dang! That is amazing. But it seems as if the supply of copies has really been drying up. Kind of surprising given how many copies are out there.

Rich Maybe tough to find the first two wraps for sale by themselves. Probably a better bet to locate a copy with a missing cf. Covers (without interiors) also seem to surface every once in a while.

My grail that I will never own. The seller is good and is from Spain. He has an account here but I do not think he has been active in a long time. I actually won my Red Raven Comics #1 from him and had no issues whatsoever. Great communication and responsiveness plus excellent packaging. My Red Raven was a grail too but nothing like the Cap.

Many Cap stories to choose from as you know. The 27th page has some excellent action panels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is just me and having a page or two would not bring me much joy. I would just want to own the entire book. A cover has more appeal but I just cannot see myself spending any considerable amount of money for one piece of paper. Heck, I wonder why I spend so much on 34 (68 pages) sheets of paper - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The upper left on the front shows some splitting. The lower staple also shows some splitting a d the back top left is exposed and the paper looks brown and weak.
