Marvelous Times: The introduction of Iron Man

I was an absolute Marvel Comic Book nut back in the early sixties and collected them for years. I remember reading this comic about Iron Man's origins.

I had a lot of first issues including Thor, Fantastic Four, The Hulk, Spider Man, and Dr. Strange. I had boxes of comics that I put in storage at my parents house while in the Army.

 Sadly, they couldn't stay there because my parents were moving back east. I had just returned from Vietnam and was stationed at Ft, McArthur. There was no room to store my comics there, so in the end, I gave them to a school teacher who bought my parents house.

Needless to say, if I had them now I'd be doing pretty good as they as they are very expensive collector items now. This comic went for 12 cents. I remember paying a dime prior to that, for Marvel and DC Comics. Those were the days!
