Description

Justice League of America #1 was the very first comic book that I ever purchased. My great grandmother bought it for me at a convenience store just a few blocks from our house. I actually remember seeing it on the spinner rack, and I was fascinated by all of the different-looking characters on the cover as I had no idea who they were -- even Batman. The only one that I recognized was Superman and that was because I had been watching his adventures every afternoon on TV. So, I'm sure you can imagine how finally owning a page of art from the first comic book that I ever read makes me feel! Awesome! Here is the "formal" description of this piece: Mike Sekowsky and Bernard Sachs Justice League of America #1 Story Page 20 Original Art (DC, 1960). The Martian Manhunter and Batman attempt to save the planet Narx! This was only the fourth appearance of the JLA, as they had previously debuted in The Brave and the Bold #28-30. This page was produced at twice-up scale in ink over graphite on Bristol board with an image area of 13" x 19" (including the paste-up header banner). Lightly toned, with minor soiling. In Very Good condition.

Congratulations on acquiring a page from JLA # 1. I'm glad to see these pages go to fans who read this series as kids in the 1960's. I didn't start with the very first issue like you did but I wasn't far behind and would always look forward to seeing a new issue appear on the spinner rack.

Congratulations on obtaining such a historic, yet meaningful grail piece! Even though I was born way after JLA #1 hit the stands, my dad's childhood friend had a copy in F/VF condition, along with many other DC comics from the time that he let me look through. As it kid I could not understand why there was no issue # on the cover.  Only by looking at the indicia did I realize it was a #1.
