Amazing Spider-Man Collecting Thread! 37 37

[Morganmi]

Bought this Back in the early 80's. At the time it was the most expensive book I'd ever bought at 85$ plus 10 or 20% store discount. Can"t remember anymore.

Thanks! It took a while to find the right copy! I actually passed over several 9.8s that didn't look as nice.

My first comic book. My mother bought it and put in my crib when I was a month old. It, too, was a Canadian newsstand.

Indeed it was. Before the continent’s moved.

At times yes, especially with our inhospitable weather during the winter months

Exactly! But my polite Canadian manners wouldn’t let me rub it in, not that Quebec has such great winters.

Two BIG ones but Spidey wasn’t even a glint in Stan and Steve’s eyes yet.
