The buyer's name has not been disclosed. He is “an extremely passionate comic book collector and investor” who also collects other items, Zurzolo said. The very well-preserved “pay copy” is especially sought-after because it bears the publisher's handwritten notes recording how much the multiple writers and artists were paid. For example, Frank R. Paul earned $25 for drawing the cover of a book now worth nearly 100,000 times as much.“It's an incredibly important look into the world and behind the scenes of the creation” of a comics powerhouse, Zurzolo said.
