1963 John Romita Sr Amazing Spider-Man #74 cover!!

I call this a "wow" post on my blog. Turns out I have a lot of these here. If you don't believe me, scroll through some of my previous posts and see for yourself.

This time, it's a sweet and hard to come by John Romita Sr Amazing Spider-Man 74 cover, all original artwork. On eBay, it is currently at $44,544.00 with 2 days 17 hours remaining. I'll update realized price after it closes. Anyone want to make a guess at what it will end at?

This is worth looking even if you aren't buying!! You won't see this in a long time. 12 cent cover original art.

UPDATE: Auction did not meet reserve price and ended at $44,544.00. However, this seller often sets higher reserves and I'm guessing completes the transaction outside of eBay.

One Million Dollar Bill?

Ok, I've heard of trying to cash in on someone else's stupidity, but this is trying to take it literally. A One Million Dollar bill?
