Snagged this from a shop in Seattle as a birthday gift to myself! Amazing Spider-Man #44, 2nd appearance of the Lizard! 

I have always loved this cover.

Let's stick with the Lizard theme but later issues as later ASM issues don't get as much love as the under 50 ASMs do around here.

@jjonahjameson11 this is better than a 9.8 129 WP - forget your Hulk OA and go for this

Oh, I wish I had the funds for it.  It’s a fanboy’s dream!

I need an opinion on a copy of ASM 129, I cant decide if it is worth sending in for grading , it is missing the Marvel Stamp but the book is not in too bad of shape. I will post pics later today

No value stamp?  I would recommend against grading...

Flashback as a wee lad ( Chicago Lad ) growing through the Spidey section of Nebraska’s only comic book store. Seeing those early silver age covers still gives me a thrill

Bob Gelner’s store in Omaha? It opened in the mid 1970s.

Yes !   Curly haired Bob - The Dragon’s Lair.  My mom would drop me off for hours so I could salivate at what was behind his glass case back in the day. I can’t believe my parents let a 10 year old hang out by himself there for 6 hours at a time.  Bob sold me my first big book - Spidey #3 !

You must also be a Lizard fan.  There aren't that many villains wearing a lab coat but he seems to look good in it.
