Condition & Value

Condition Grade

Fine (CGC 6.0)

Condition Details

Moderate spine stress and ticks, orange price sticker on front cover (significant detraction), minor corner blunting, and slight color fading on the yellow background elements.

Estimated Market Value

Raw: $10.00 - $18.00; Graded: $45.00 - $60.00 (though price sticker reduces appeal to collectors).

Recent Sales

Comparable F/VF newsstand copies have sold between $12 and $22 on platforms like eBay. High-grade (9.6+) copies sell for over $100.

Grading Recommendation

Not recommended for professional grading. The orange price sticker is on the cover itself rather than the bag; if it cannot be removed without damage, it significantly limits the grade. The cost of grading exceeds the market value of the book.

Notable Features

Features the Jester. This is a newsstand edition with a UPC barcode (35 cent variants exist for this year, but this is the standard 25 cent edition).

Authentication Notes

Authentic bronze age Marvel publication. Period-accurate corner UPC barcode placement and 'Still Only 25c' price blurb. No evidence of reproduction.
