Owner's Description
One of the toughest books in the run in high grade, this is the best existing copy with WP and the Western Penn Pedigree. Surfacing in the '90s, much of this collection's history is shrouded in mystery. We know that both a father and his son accumulated the collection from the '60s to '80s, and there was allegedly a cache of Golden Age comics as well that may have been sold earlier (to date only a handful of Tarzans prior to 1961 have been CGC graded). Stuart Friedlander brought the collection to market, and several Silver Age publishers were represented, although Marvel was the predominant company. Known for very high grades and exceptional page quality starting in 1961, the Western Penn copies have been well documented, but do not exhibit any identifying mark
One of the highlights of our entire collection are the TTA #35 and #36 Western Penn copies, both of which are highest graded. We acquired the book in a private transaction with Josh Nathanson at CL in April 2019.*
