The Amazing Spider-Man: Secrets Comic Strip Print

This item is a printed comic strip featuring 'The Amazing Spider-Man' with the sub-title 'Secrets' prominently displayed. It appears to be a portion of a larger publication, possibly a newspaper comic section or a magazine insert, given its paper quality and general layout. The paper is off-white to light cream, indicative of aged newsprint or similar pulp paper, with visible yellowing around the edges and creases, suggesting an older production date. The print quality shows a dot-matrix or newsprint style, with colors that include red, blue, yellow, and various skin tones, indicating a four-color printing process typical of comic books and strips from the mid to late 20th century. The comic features several panels illustrating a narrative with speech bubbles. One prominent panel depicts Spider-Man in his classic red and blue costume, posed dynamically. Other panels show various human characters, including young adults or teenagers, interacting within domestic settings. There are visible creases and folds across the item, particularly a strong vertical fold down the center, which is characteristic of a piece that has been folded for storage or publication. The top right corner includes a 'NEA' (Newspaper Enterprise Association) logo and what appears to be a signature from 'Anne C. Cole, Executive Director National Committee for Prevention of Child Abuse,' suggesting this comic may have been part of an educational or public service initiative. The overall condition suggests moderate wear consistent with an item of its age and material, likely stored without optimal archival conditions. The visible portion spans at least two pages or a double-page spread. The art style is consistent with mainstream American comic books from the 1970s or 1980s.
