55th Anniversary Of Green Lantern Number 76 Bronze Age Comic Book Debuting On The Newsstands

Yesterday was the 55th anniversary of Green Lantern issue number 76 debuting on the newsstands.  The on-sale date for this comic book was February 19, 1970.  I purchased this copy at "Riddle Me This" on Haddon Avenue for $4.00 in 1994 or 1995.  There was already a big buzz for this issue at that time.  The unfortunate spine damage really caused this book to be considered low grade.  Fine with me.  The book is structurally sound otherwise.  I brought out the Super Powers Green Lantern and Green Arrow action figures for the occasion.
