Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Near Mint (9.4)
Condition Details
Image appears to show vertical digital artifacts or screen glare. Assuming the book is raw based on the image, the edges look sharp and the spine shows no immediate color-breaking ticks, though visible vertical lines appear to be from the photo source (screen) rather than the paper.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $80 - $120; Graded (CGC 9.8): $300 - $450
Recent Sales
The 1:25 Tarr variant has recently sold between $90 for mid-grade raw copies to over $400 for high-grade 9.8 slabbed copies.
Grading Recommendation
Highly recommended for grading if the surface is free of those vertical lines in reality. This is a high-demand incentive variant. A professional press and clean could ensure a 9.8, significantly increasing liquidity and value.
Notable Features
1:25 Retailer Incentive; Babs Tarr artwork; Virgin cover (no trade dress); Modern key series for Gwen Stacy.
Authentication Notes
The lack of trade dress and the specific 'Babs' signature in the lower right (faint) matches official Marvel 1:25 incentive layouts. Check for proper paper gloss and the correct 'Marvel' indicia on the interior first page.
