American Update: Avengers Assemble! Mighty Marvel Firsts: Avengers #4 – 1st Silver Age Captain America
*Marvel: In the fourth issue of Marvel’s Avengers series, the already formidable team of Iron Man, Giant-Man, Thor and the Wasp was augmented by one of the legendary heroes from the past. Captain America returned to action after years in Post-WWII suspended animation, and rapidly became the acknowledged heart and soul of the Avengers, who have never flourished for long without him! This copy of Cap’s iconic return to action is a pence priced copy in PR/FA; the cover is virtually detached, and there is moderate to heavy wear on all edges, with rounded corners. There is a light stain (approx. 1″) on the lower splash page, only mildly impacting a caption and not significantly affecting the image proper. There are also two small markings on the cover – a beige blob between the ‘R’ and ‘S’ of the logo, and a light red smear across the Sub-Mariner’s face in the insert. Interior pages are clean and readable, with light to moderate wear, but no markings or significant tears. More attractive than the PR/FA p grade makes it sound, this is on sale at £250. SORRY, THIS HAS NOW SOLD
