X-Men 72 CGC 9.8 Last 1st Series Giant RARE NM/MT 1971 Key Comics COA 2060365001

Description: Classic Marvel Comic: The X-Men! This Auction Includes: LOT OF 1 VINTAGE COMIC BOOK: X-MEN #72 CGC 9.8 With Off-White To White Pages, The Elusive Final Issue Of The Original Series To Feature A Thick Square Spine; This Double-Size Format Would Not Be Seen Again On A Regular Issue Of The Series Until Uncanny X-Men #137 Many Years Later, And That One Featured The "New Team" Not These Silver-Age Superstars. This Beauty Hails From My Renowned Ultra-High Grade Comprehensive X-Men Set, And It Includes The Key Comics Collection Certificate Of Authenticity. Of All The Issues Of The Generations-Spanning Series, This Was One That Was Most Challenging For Me To Obtain In This Census-Topping Grade, Which Is Why I Stashed This One Aside When The Rest Of The Six Hundred Certified Issues Were Sold In 2019. The Collection Included The SOLE 9.8 (As Of 2019) Of Issue #14, Along With The ONLY CGC 9.8 White Of #12 With Juggernaut's Debut, Even Almost All These Tough Reprint Issues Were 9.8, And It Also Had Dozens Of CGC Mint 9.9's And 10.0's, All From This Same Iconic Long-Running Series, So It Topped The CGC Registry By A Large Margin, In Multiple Categories. But THIS #72 Is One That Truly Stood Out To Me, Looking Every Bit Like Brand New And Boasting The Boldest Colors, Perfect Centering, And Heavy Gloss. Plus, No Date Stamp Or Other Markings, And No Hint Of Dust Shadow Nor Any Other Signs Of Aging, ~Simply Unbelievable! This Giant-Size Issue Is Seldom Seen In Near Mint Shape, And It Is Near Impossible In NM/MINT 9.8 Condition. According To The Latest GPA Data, Only TWO Total Copies Have Changed Hands In CGC 9.8 Condition (Besides The Twin Cities Pedigree That Was Last Seen In 2011), And That Was Over The Course Of 23 Long Years!!! If You Think Getting Copies Of Giant-Size #1 and X-Men #94 In This Grade Is Tough, Then FORGET About This True Rarity, As Those Popular Mutant Books Turn Up In 9.8 Shape More Than TEN TIMES As Often As This Uncommon Number! So Don't Miss This Chance To Score A Once-In-A-Lifetime Example. THIS GIANT-SIZE ISSUE HAD AN ORIGINAL PRICE OF 25 CENTS. The Old Marvel Superhero Comics Never Go Out Of Style! This hails from a cool, dry, smoke-free, climate-controlled environment. It has bright colors and bone white paper and the eye appeal is unsurpassed! Crucial issue for any high-grade silver/bronze Marvel collector or giant-size comic fiend or collector of mutant comics. MATERIAL LIKE THIS SPOTLIGHTING ICONIC THEMES OF CINEMA, TELEVISION, POP CULTURE AND LITERATURE NEVER LOSES APPEAL. This historic collectible will be carefully packaged to ensure safe delivery. ONE OF THE FINEST COPIES OF ANY EARLY BRONZE X-MEN COMIC YOU WILL FIND (NOTE, MY COPIES OF MOST THE OTHER NUMBERS AFTER #11 WERE THE SAME GRADE, WHICH TOPS THE CENSUS, BUT IT WAS ONLY THIS PRISTINE COPY FROM OUT OF ALL THE REPRINT ISSUES, THAT I RETAINED... DURING THE LENGTHY PERIOD THAT I SEARCHED DILIGENTLY FOR ANY 9.8 OF THIS NUMBER I BOUGHT AND SOLD AT LEAST A DOZEN CGC 9.8s APIECE OF GIANT-SIZE X-MEN #1 AND HULK #181!)
