This is a professionally graded copy of The Avengers issue number 8, published by Marvel Comics in September 1964.

The comic is encapsulated in a CGC (Certified Guaranty Company) tamper-evident holder and has been assigned a Qualified Grade of 3.5 with cream to off-white pages. The green label denotes a qualified status because page 9 is missing from the interior. The certification number is 4467762001.
