This is a promotional reprint noted by the 'SPIDER-MAN COLLECTIBLE SERIES • VOLUME 19' header and the 'NOT FOR RESALE' text at the bottom. It mimics the original 12-cent silver age cover but is a modern reproduction.
Authentication Notes
Authentic promotional reprint. This is NOT the original 1964 issue. Distinguishing factors include the black border frame, the 'Collectible Series' header, and the modern glossier paper finish visible in the light reflections.
