Official Canadian Newsstand Cover Price V****** Thread

18 18

BTW are there actually at least 4 of these because both you guys didn't label them properly.

I posted an old scan - it has been corrected.

Does anyone know a timeline as to when these Canadian edition prints stopped?

ASM 279 is the highest numbered 95 center I have, my 280 is direct and my 281 has USD/CAD/Pence pricing but is a Cdn newsstand.

So if it's 279 that'd be issues cover dated August 1986

After that month, there is no difference between the Canadian and U.S. Newsstand version of the marvel books

I had it noted as September of 1988. Not sure if it varies for DC and Marvel, but I was looking for Batman issues and that puts it just before Death in the Family. The latest one I own is Batman 410 and that's August of 1987.

According to Doug Sulipa's website, there were Canadian DC newsstand variants published until September 1988. The last Batman issue with one was 423.

Based on what I have seen, Doug's post is correct. There are some 1988 DCs with funky cover prices above $1.00 that are harder to find.

Like the 1.60 price tag on Funny Stuff, 2.10 on Batman 400 and I've seen some with 1.35. I think "Last Days of the Juctice Society" had a 3.50 price tag.

What a beauty!

I have to look, but I'm sure I have $1.65 as a cover price as well, can't remember the books. I'll try to get up scans or pics.

Read Doug Sulipa's market reports in Overstreet. I can't recall exactly, but Marvel was around 2/82-6/86 and DC was 2/82 to 9/88 or so.

Thanks. I just picked up a nice 9.8 Marvel that wasn't label [or priced for that matter as a Canadian edition].

I just got the exact same back from CGC and almost panicked when I saw it was the Canadian version (what should I have expected? I bought it from a Canadian). I was worried that it would not hold the same value. Then I started checking sales and they were strong. Next I saw this thread and realized the Canadian 75 cent-ers are appreciated so my Canadian ASM 238 9.6 will be replacing my red label ASM 238 9.2.

Show us a pic if you get a chance. I just did a quick tally an I have picked up 60 high grade slabs but unfortunately I can't post most of them.

Gotta love that!

I've bought a few books in the past that were not labeled correctly And flew under the radar. I did reholder a Wolverine 2 for correct labeling.
