Condition Details
Moderate spine stress with some color-breaking ticks. Corner blunting on bottom right. Minor surface wear and potential light tanning along edges. Comic appears flat with decent gloss.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $10 - $20; Graded (9.0+): $60 - $80. Value is slightly affected by it being a UK price variant which has a smaller collector niche than US cents copies.
Recent Sales
Recent sales for mid-to-high grade raw copies ranges from $8 to $15. UK variants typically sell at a 10-20% discount compared to US cents copies unless in high NM conditions.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The cost of grading (CGC/CBCS) would likely exceed the market value of the book in this condition. Best kept in a fresh bag and board for personal collection.
Notable Features
Features the 12p UK Price Variant (Marvel All-Colour Comics banner). Early Spider-Woman solo series issue. Includes Appearance by the Gamester.
Authentication Notes
Authentic 1980 Marvel UK distribution copy. Correct paper stock for the era, 'Marvel All-Colour Comics' banner across the top is standard for UK imports of this period.
