Item Description

As a 40 year serious collector I have acquired a vast inventory of most major Marvel and DC titles, as well as many Independents, Graphic Novels, Trades and hard Cover books. I believe my grading to be conservative and based on one THING, Can the book pull the said grade from Third Party Graders Like CGC, and CBCS. Ive submitted many books for grading and I have also cracked out plenty of CGC and CBCS books for my personal collection over the years. I will securely and promptly ship all orders and will be more than happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have. I will continue adding more comics, cards and books to my store here. Thank You for stopping by for a look.Ive been an Hip member since 1999 and a Top Rated Hip seller with 100% Positive Feedback for over a decade.

The time has come for me to start selling my treasured High Grade Captain America collection. As a life long collector of high grade comic books I completed this Captain America Run, Yes ALL 454 issues. It took me a little over 10 years to complete the entire run in the higher grades I was looking for. Some were cracked out from CGC / CBCS slabs. I will be listing more high grade Silver Age Cap books as time allows.

All the books I will be listing are Original unaltered books. None have ever been pressed or altered in any way.
I have been a long term seller of Comic Books and other collectables for over 20 Years and Hip Comic for the past 5 years. Please check my feedback.
My goal is a Smooth transaction with serious buyers looking to add higher grade Silver Age books to the collections.

With his friends freed from their stone prisons, Captain America leads an all-out assault on the SHIELD lab!

* Cast your eyes on this beauty! 50+ year old comic books just don't get much better than this! Up for your consideration and viewing pleasure comes yet another high end book from my captain America run. This book exhibits like New Quality with VERY minimal to no wear, mainly just a hint of spine wear. The book has beautiful Original cover color and gloss. The book's interior is complete with nice page quality with NO: Cut Outs, writing, stains etc... Along with a perfect cover wrap the book has outstanding eye appeal. Another tough call on this book as I Really wanted to call it a 9.2 NM-, Ive certainly seen lesser books in NM slabs these days. That said, I believe the book with the minimal wear described is likely in the 8.5 -9.0 Grade range. Again..... One thing is for sure....... Finding high end Silver and Bronze age Cap books like this out in the wild is no easy task! A super nice addition to ANY comic book collection.
