Out Of This World # 17,  1963    Alan Class Comics.

First ever reprint of Marvel Comics Amazing Fantasy no.15, the first ever appearance of Spider-man

This is the very rare, early and almost contemporary Alan Class reprint of Amazing Fantasy no.15, the first appearance of Spider-man by Stan Lee & Steve Ditko. This is believed to be the first ever reprint of Amazing Fantasy no.15 in the World , certainly the first British reprint by several years. What's particularly fascinating is that the story just appears without  fanfare.

Out of This World #17  ( Published 1963 , month uncertain ) Alan Class, 1962 Series  Format: Standard Golden Age US Size ; Colour cover ; Black and white interior  68 pgs

Alan Class Comics was a British comics publishing company between 1959 and 1989, owned by Alan Class (born in London, England July 21, 1937). The company produced anthology titles, reprinting comics stories from many U.S. publishers of the 1940s to 1960s in a black and white digest format for a U.K. audience.

 Since the books were wider than the American originals, all the cover art was visible where American printings were cut-off . The reason: By the 1960s the width of American comics shrank while artists used the same size art boards. So the American versions look cut-off while Alan Class covers don't.

it doesn't figure on Official Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide or Grand Comic Database. 

for the condition just take a look but all pages are nicely attached , I personally think its a 6.5  Fine + condition but this is just me , please look at the pictures to evaluate for yourself.

reprinted in 1963  ( just after a year  of Amazing Fantasy # 15 )
