Star Wars 1 (35 cent cover variant) CGC 8.5 OW-W pages
Star Wars #1 - CGC 8.5 - 35 cent cover variant. In 1977 Marvel was experimenting with a 5 cent price increase, with 35 cent copies of many comics available but only in a select few cities.
There is some evidence to suggest (distribution markings on the comics) that the 35 cent newsstand variant of Star Wars #1 was distributed to four cities (Memphis, Toledo, Tuscaloosa and Wilmington). Overstreet has suggested only around 1,500 copies were printed. On the CGC census, there are only 18 copies with an 8.5 grade. There are only 50 copies graded higher.
