Description
X-Men #1-212 And More Bound Volumes (Marvel, 1963-86). These eighteen hardcover volumes also include Giant-Size X-Men #1 and 2 and X-Men Annual #1-10. Having two decades' worth of one of the most collectible titles is pretty amazing, but the condition is an even bigger story. Page quality averages off-white to white, and none of the books are tan at the page edges as bound volumes often tend to be. The covers are pristine for the most part, though some of the early issues appear to have been VG-type copies before binding. There's a marking or a crease here or there, but when a 1-inch tear on the cover of #3 is the most "serious" defect you can find, that's a special run indeed!These are black volumes, with issue ranges and dates embossed on the spines and a previous owner's name embossed on the front covers (the embossed numbers are correct -- in a couple of cases an issue is repeated at the end of one volume and the beginning of the next). The books containing issues #1-84 and earlier and #133-212 have trimmed edges, as is customary for bound volumes; the middle issues are untrimmed. Having everything from the Jack Kirby years through the John Romita Jr. run, including all ads, Bullpen Bulletins, etc. is sheer delight! Overstreet 2009 VG 4.0 value for group = $5,830.
