Strange Tales Annual #2 Signed By Stan Lee For Auction Today
The fourth-ever appearance of Spider-Man, Strange Tales #4, is not often mentioned as one of the web-slingers key appearances. This is his first crossover and his fourth appearance overall. Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and Steve Ditko all did work on this issue, which also features a Kirby cover with Spider-Man. Up for auction today at Heritage Auctions and ending very soon, this copy is a near-perfect copy that features something that sends it into rare air for collectors: Stan Lee signed it. Part of Dallas Lot #7236, this 9.0 CGC Signature Series book is currently sitting at $2425, which is pretty low for a Stan Lee signed rare book like this is such great shape. Check out the book below; it is really pretty.
