Owner's Description
Marvel Annuals have really enjoyed a price explosion in 2021, as they keep setting record after record. DD Annual #1 features appearances by Electro, Gladiator, Stilt-Man, Leap-Frog and the Matador. Our 9.8 features white pages and comes from the Twin Cities and Federal Hill Collections. The Twin Cities Collection was the product of Gary Dahlberg who spent his life carefully buying, reading and storing comic books away throughout the '60s and '70s, with aspirations to become a cartoonist one day. Sadly, he died in a fire in 2010, but to the astonishment of his family his collection was appraised at more than $1 million by Heritage, who auctioned the books in 2011. Consisting of mainly Marvel and DC, this accumulation has no identifying marks but yielded some of the highest grades of the early Marvel period with considerably high page quality. The collection ultimately brought over $2.4 million at auction.
Our book is one of just three 9.8s in the census and certainly the nicest example I have seen-and I believe the only one with white pages to boot. We acquired the book in a transaction with another private collector in May 2021.
