Superman #1 comic (1939) sells at auction for record $9.1 million

[BigJay]

Three brothers found it in the attic in a box of newspapers after their mom passed

Pristine condition

She always told them “I have some old comics somewhere” but she never could remember where. Brothers thought it was just a family legend

One of the rarest Superman comics in existence just sold for over $9 million at auction, making it the most valuable comic of all time

A near perfect copy of 1939's Superman #1, one of the rarest comics in existence, is now the most expensive comic ever

Love these “in the attic” stories

I remember some of the best trove of old baseball card finds were similar stories back when I was collecting three decades ago

Best “found in the attic” story since @jjgold and his aunt’s cash-filled sock

Wow! Very lucky!

It's time to check and clean the attic. Grandpa might have left something valuable like this.
