- There is a second date written on the cover in pencil: June 19, 1955 This second later date is so neatly hand written that I suspect it is actually the purchase date written by the kid who originally bought the comic. All other hand written arrival dates that I have previously seen have been, for the most part, hastily scrawled. - Joe Moore.
