Methodology
Every sale on this list has been verified against a primary source — the auction house that ran the lot, the grading company that announced the sale, or major news coverage at the time. Prices are the hammer or realized total the source reported, in USD, at the time of sale. When the same physical copy sold multiple times, each sale is a separate entry.
