The Silver Age was launched with this daring and still strikingly modern revamp of the classic Golden Age franchise, developed by Julius Schwartz and Robert Kanigher, and beautifully rendered by the legendary Carmine Infantino and Joe Kubert, topped off with a cover that was a classic the minute it was printed. This issue features the origin and first appearance of Barry Allen as the Silver Age Flash.

Quite possibly the most important key of the Silver Age, and a book that never -- really NEVER -- comes to market in this condition, this is a stunning copy of a truly great comic book. The Silver Age was launched with this daring and still strikingly modern revamp of the classic Golden Age franchise, developed by Julius Schwartz and Robert Kanigher, and beautifully rendered by the legendary Carmine Infantino and Joe Kubert, topped off with a cover that was a classic the minute it was printed. This is the second highest graded copy in existence, and the last recorded sale of a copy in close to this kind of shape (which was a 9.2) was in 2004 for $62,000, so this copy is sure to break sales records. This is one to watch!
