Description

What can I say? Can mere words do this incredible Silver Age key and nicest known copy justice? Should I mention it's the SINGLE HIGHEST CERTIFIED EXAMPLE? One of one in 9.2 with only 3 9.0's directly underneath. Only 5 total copies have graded at 8.5, one of which just recently sold for $60,000 (in august). This is the very first time a 9.2 has been offered for sale. The last time one of the 3 9.0's hit the market was 8 years ago!! Truly, a rare opportunity to own one of the very best comic books of the Silver Age. The book itself is incredible, with unreal colors, bold inks, respectable cream to off-white pages and only very minor wear at the top right of the front cover keeping it from being a comically impossible 9.4 or 9.6. The back cover is a 9.6 and is whiter than white. Features the origin and first appearance of the Silver Age Green Lantern from September, 1959. Also features the introduction of Carol Ferris and Abin Sur. Let the fun begin!!
