Autumn 2024 Market Report

THE BEANO No 1: £26,000  –  AMAZING FANTASY #15: £9,300

 

 

This Beano No. 1 with free gift ‘Whoopee Mask’ was originally sold by Comic Book Auctions at our live auction at Chelsea Town Hall in February 1999 for £6200. Then, as now, the Whoopee Mask was the only surviving free gift and it was accompanied by the promotional leaflet for Beano 1 and 2, The Times newspaper featuring the sale on its front page and our original auction catalogue. Three determined bidders then took the 1938 first issue to a winning bid of £26,000, a world record price for a British comic at auction. A hugely exciting moment in our company’s 33 year history.
