There appears to be errors regarding the publication dates for a series of Journey Into Mystery issues.
The months appear correct.
The year does not.

For example, CPG lists issue #55 as "November 1958."
My actual issue indicates "November 1959."
See attached photo for details.

This also appears to be the case for other nearby issues that I have (ex. #50, #56).

Not sure where the error began or where it gets corrected.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for pointing this out. Apparently Atlas had distribution troubles and stopped or almost stopped publishing for a year. Issue #48 was in September 1957 and issue #49 was in November 1958. You can see how that might confuse someone.

That information might be an interesting fact to include in the "Details" section of Journey Into Mystery #49. (Just an idea.)
