MARVEL COMICS - Framed Uncanny X-Men No. 182 Cover Printing Plate with Comic Book - A framed printing plate for the cover of Uncanny X-Men issue 182 published by Marvel Comics in June 1984 with a copy of the issue. Known for having one of the highest print circulations of any comic book of the era, the issue was written by Chris Claremont with pencils and cover art by John Romita, Jr., inks by Dan Green, and colors by Glynis Wein.

Created specifically for the direct sales version of the comic, this metal black plate featuring Rogue was originally curved from being stretched around a printing drum, but has since been matted behind plexiglass in a black wooden frame in order to flatten it. The comic book exhibits minor edge wear. Dimensions: (largest): 18.5" x 15.5" x 2.25" (47 cm x 39.5 cm x 5.75 cm)

Estimate: $2,000 - 4,000
