Wowsa!  Just like the title says. 

A Captain America 212 35 cent variant that is missing the words "Marvel Comics Group" has shown up on Comiclink along with a slew of new graded 35 cent variants.  It is a CGC Graded 4.5 with off white to white pages.  The label also sports the following two comments:  MANUFACTURING ERROR - Manufactured without "Marvel Comics Group" printed at top of cover.  This book comes with a hefty price tag though, listed at $2000.  Regardless of the sellers comments, this is for sure the third known copy, and possibly the fourth.  After my blog regarding variant variants, I was contacted by a person who was looking at purchasing a copy.  This may be the copy, or could be the fourth known.

One thing for sure, this book is a rarity that would be prized by more than just 35 cent variant completionists. 

STLComics has had this book on our site since shortly after the 35 cent gallery was created.  You can check it out here:  http://stlcomics.com/gallery/35cent/  Our very own Cosmic-Spider-Man was the first to identify and aquire this anomoly for his complete run of 35 cent variants.  It was he who brought it to our attention.  I was surprised to find a copy on ebay shortly thereafter in an open Variant listing, and was fortunate enough to secure a copy for myself.  Knowing that this book is not a "one and only"  it is now a must for anyone trying to complete the entire run of 35 cent variants.

As usual, if you like variants, especially ones of the 35 cent variety, please check us out here:  http://forum.stlcomics.com/viewtopic.php?t=3127  and talk to us.
