Description
One of only 5 copies in CGC certified 9.6!!! The world's #2 example following a freakish 9.8. Always a real challenge to find in ultra high grade. One of the best annuals of all time with a classic Thor vs. Hercules cover (first appearance of Hercules and Zeus). Perfectly registered with fresh BONE white pages. The cover is ridiculously white and makes one think this book was uncovered from a time capsule as it's virtually impossible to look NICER than the day it was published (over 51 years ago!). Looks unread. When do you see a square-bound look this nice?! The last 9.8 offered for sale 9Pacific coast copy) fetched $7,170 in August. The last non-pedigree 9.6 was brought to market over 13 years ago as these NM+ copies are pretty much locked away in high grade Thor collections.
