Marvel Mystery Comics #9 (Timely, 1940) CGC VF 8.0 Off-white pages. Undeniably a holy grail issue for many Timely collectors, this book is downright impossible to find in nice shape. Trying to obtain a copy of this book that does not have a completely split spine or restoration is a daunting task. As the highest graded copy certified by CGC, this book has caused quite a buzz in the collecting community; we have received more inquiries about this particular copy than any other book in the auction. The colors on this book are extremely bright and vivid, and you could literally lose track of time and spend hours gazing upon it - transfixed by its sheer beauty. This Sub-Mariner versus the Human Torch battle issue has always ranked as a favorite among fans and there is no better copy available. Art by Bill Everett, Carl Burgos and Paul Gustavson. This book was purchased from George Olshevsky as the Chicago copy, although CGC has not noted that information on the label. Overstreet 2002 VF 8.0 value = $11,000; NM 9.4 value = $28,000.
