Owner's Description
REALLY NICE EXAMPLE OF THIS HIGH GRADE SIGNED COPY BY JERRY SIEGEL. THERE WERE 2000 COPIES SIGNED BY JERRY IN 1992 & 1993. SO FAR NOT A LOT OF 9.8s HAVE BEEN GRADED IN THIS1993 YEAR. THE TOTAL IS 18 9.8 GRADED / 15 OF THOSE ARE QUALIFIED GRADE & MOST LIKELY THE JERRY SIEGEL SIGNED ISSUE. THE OTHER THREE COPIES ARE REGULAR ISSUES WITH NO SIGNATURE MAKING THE UNSIGNED COPIES MUCH MORE RARE. THE POSSIBILITY FOR MORE IS HIGHLY POSSIBLE THERE HAS TO BE MANY NICE COMICS NOT YET GRADED HIDEN IN DRAWERS SOMEWHERE. I FOUND THIS COPY IN JAPAN KNEW WHEN HOLDING IT, 99% SURE IT WOULD GRADE 9.8. VERY HAPPY WHEN IT WAS RETURNED BY CGC & I WAS CORRECT. ASKING PRICES FOR THIS ISSUE IN 9.8 GRADE IS $2500 ON MOST ALL AVAILABLE COPIES. I DON'T AGREE WITH OTHERS ASSUMPTIONS AND FEEL THAT IS A HIGHLY INFLATED PRICE. TRUE VALUE IS WHAT ONE IS WILLING TO PAY. REALISTICALLY ITS $1000 - $1500 PERSONALLY FEEL THAT IS ACTUALLY HIGH AS 33 9.8s IS NOT RARE BUT STILL OVER PRICED.THE SECOND PICTURE IS THE COPY BEFORE I SENT TO CGC FOR GRADING. IT REALLY IS WORTH THE GRADE GIVEN ALMOST A FLAWLESS COPY. AS CLOSE TO 9.9 OR 10 AS ONE COULD POSSIBLY FIND, JUST WISH THE PRICES WERE MORE IN LINE TO ACTUAL "REAL" VALUE. SO MANY SELLERS ARE TRYING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE THINKING THE COPIES ARE MORE VALUABLE THAN THEY REALLY ARE. SO MANY OTHER ISSUE`S SIGNED BY CREATOR JERRY SIEGEL ARE NO WHERE NEAR THE ASKING PRICES OF THIS 1938 # 1 SUPERMAN REPRINT.
