Owner's Description
Issue #167 features a spectacular Jim Steranko flag cover from 1968. The book also features appearances by Yellow Claw appearance and Doctor Doom. Our WP 9.8 comes from the Rocky Mountain Collection and is tied for highest graded. The Rocky Mountain Pedigree pedigree was assigned to a large Marvel and DC Silver Age collection originally auctioned by Comiclink in 2008. The Spider-Man, Fantastic Four and X-men runs were first auctioned without pedigree, but due to high collector interest the decision was made by CGC to classify the collection as a pedigree. Subsequently those three runs were retroactively given the Rocky Mountain notation. Hailing from Colorado, the collection numbered around 5,000 books, initially stored in a basement in similar conditions to the Mile High collection. None of the books exhibit identifying marks, but are easily traceable back to Comiclink.
We acquired our book from a very spirited Heritage Monday Night auction on Christmas Eve Eve 2024. It is the nicest copy of this issue we have ever seen.
