DESCRIPTION

ow/white pages; Tied 2nd Highest! QES Certified: impressive prime focal area, sharp right edge with no chipping, deep color strike (red, grey, yellow)
Kirby cover/art; Ditko art; 3rd app. Iron Man (5/63)The third appearance of Iron Man still features the lustrous, shiny gold armor that was modified several issues later. The awkward lurching position of Iron Man along with the contrast of the gold against grey-tone background makes the appearance of Iron Man very dramatic. It is easy to understand why this is a favorite cover of many Silver Age Iron Man collectors.
One of only four known copies in 9.6 condition, this book is so impeccable that it has a three-dimensional appearance, as though you could reach right into the scene and touch our beleaguered protagonist. QES has noted the impressive prime focal area, sharp right edge with no chipping, and deep red, gray, and yellow color strike as the most impressive elements of this cover. This third-ever appearance of Iron Man is one of the finest copies we’ve ever had the pleasure of offering at auction.
Overstreet Guide 2022 NM- (9.2) value = $4,500
