Conan the Barbarian #59 Publisher: Marvel Comics VARIANT: Price Variant - UK About UK Price Variants: From the early 1960’s until the mid 1980’s many original American comic books were distributed in the UK through sweet shops and newsagents. In order that the UK retailers would know what to charge for them, the publishers produced covers variants with UK rather than US cover prices. These variant copies were printed at the same time on the same presses, with the same paper and the same ink as all the other copies. The only difference is that at some point in the print run, the Cents cover price was changed to Pence for the copies intended to be shipped to the UK. The exact quantity produced of these variants is unclear; however considering the relative sizes of the US & UK comic book markets it is unlikely to be above 10% of the entire print run. Grade: VFN (Very Fine) High to Mid grade comic. Appearing almost Near Mint at first glance but with two to three minor flaws upon closer inspection.

A word about how we manage our cover scans: As we have over 250,000 comics in stock providing cover scans for every item we list is something of a logistical problem. The practicalities of providing a scan of the ACTUAL COPY offered for sale would drastically reduce the range of comics we are able to offer through EBay. For this reason the attached scan is taken from the library of back issue cover scans we’ve accumulated over the last quarter of a century of selling comics. It is NOT a scan of the ACTUAL COPY offered for sale here and is shown for reference purposes only . Please note however that every comic IS individually and accurately graded. Please see the grade details above to insure that this particular comic is in the condition you require. Mint Comics? We do not list ANY comics as Mint condition. In our view this grade does not exist. Comic books are mass produced paper items, handled many times often with little care before even reaching the shop or newsstand to be offered for sale. EVERY COMIC even a brand new one will have some form of minor defect if you get out a magnifying glass and look closely enough. If you are intent on finding comic book perfection, or CGC guaranteed results, please do not bid. Grading Information It is an unfortunate truth that the established back issue grading system is misleading to new comers. Both ‘Good’ & ‘Fair’ are low grades. For this reason we have provided the chart below. If you are unsure what to expect from grades like VFN+ and G-, just refer to the chart. All you need to remember is that 100% is brand new while 5% has been through the washing machine. Everything else comes in steps between. The best way to use this chart is to think of it as top middle and bottom. This enables even a layman to visualise the condition of the comic.
