Description
Came across an assortment of KISS memorabilia while cleaning the attic. Instead of selling each item individually I am bundling all items together for a No Reserve / Highest Bidder takes all auction. There are over twenty (20) individual items in this KISS Bundle. The items range from a 1st edition Marvel Comics Super Special KISS magazine to several large, eight (8) panel fold out posters. There is even a sheet of KISS temporary tattoos.So here are the details:
A Marvel Comics Super Special! KISS magazin
e, 1st edition with color insert of band members having blood drawn for printing; I felt this magazine was in excellent condition so I took it to Titan Comics in Dallas, Texas, with the plan to send it off and get it CGC graded; the folks at Titan were very knowledgable and upfront; I learned that there is about a nine (9) month backlog to get a comic / magazine CGC graded; I also learned my copy would probably fall into a 6.5 ranking due to yellowing of the non-color printed pages and some wearing on the spine and back cover; PLEASE NOTE: I did not go through an official CGC grading; the people at Titan felt a 6.5 would probably be the grading level assigned if I were to have it officially graded; I saw one (1) KISS magazine like mine which had been graded; it was in a CGC hard plastic cover and had a rating of 9.3 I believe; all-in cost to grade would be around 5 and a 6.5 KISS magazine is selling for 0 - 0; decided not to get it graded and simply bundle all the 20+ items

Keep in mind the majority of the fold out posters came from magazines. That means there may be markings where center fold staples once held the poster in the magazine. There will also be fold lines on the posters. I believe most of the items to be circa 1973 - 1978 so keep that in mind when viewing the items. There may be some yellowing of some of the items. The fold lines are visible. When I use the term ‘panel’ that typically is the size of a standard magazine page. One (1) panel is roughly equal to one (1) standard magazine page.
When shipping I believe all items will fit in a USPS Priority Mail Flat Rate Medium size Shirt box, cost of .50. Items which will fit in a standard size plastic sleeve will be placed in one. Items not fitting in standard size protection will be wrapped in tissue paper, protective card stock, or a combination of the above. All items will be packaged so there is NO CHANCE OF DAMAGE DURING SHIPPING.
If you are a serious buyer (100% rating and a member for 10+ years) let me know if you need additional images and I will try to get these requests completed before the auction ends; any questions feel free to message me within the eBay app so others may see the questions and answers. I am not interested in unbundling any of the items. Sorry only domestic orders within the US.
This is a seven (7) day, No Reserve auction with a very low opening bid; highest bidder walks away with a bunch of cool KISS memorabilia; Good luck and happy bidding.
