*Alan Class Reprints: Long-time visitors to our site will remember that we’ve been selling the Printing Plates from Alan Class’s Private Archive for many years. Although they ran out in 2023, there has always been the possibility of a few more being located with the co-operation of Alan himself. Such has now happened with Creepy Worlds #41 and Suspense #52, which reprint the covers and stories of Ant-Man/Giant-Man and the Wasp from Tales To Astonish. The sets comprise the lead printing plates used in the original comic’s colour cover printing, a copy of the comic printed with these plates and a certificate of authenticity signed by Alan Class himself. These are packaged in a special protective presentation case. The quality of these plates are among the best we’ve seen. Full details follow (please remember that these sets are not available for postage to addresses outside the UK).
