[CLOSED] Captain America #1 covers

4 posts in this topic

Cap 1 covers  front and back acquired separately and neither acquired with any interior, so assume it's possible the back cover could be from a Mystic 5 published same month.   Both guaranteed unrestored though you will get a restored label if you marry these to an interior (and if you have an interior you're looking to sell, PM me).

Contender for best cover of all time and first appearance of Cap, by Simon and Kirby.  On stands in December 1940, a year before the USA entered WW2 and very controversial at the time.   First time a comic directly called out Hitler on the cover, back when much of the USA wanted to stay out of the war.   Timely's offices received death threats.  Even after Pearl Harbor, and our declaration of war on Imperial Japan, we still didn't declare war on Hitler until he declared war on US, because of his pact with Japan.  Interesting in that he ignored such pacts all the time (such as the one he had with Russia) and would've had the excuse that Japan wasn't attacked

Ship by USPS, UPS or Fedex.  Buyer pays only actual shipping.  First "I'll take it" gets it.  Offers via PM.   

Payment via check, wire, paypal.    

Asking 18,500.
