JWKyle Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 i have quite a few raw books with NDS and Mark Jeweler's inserts. But this is the only one I have had graded so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01TheDude Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Realized tonight while rebagging some books that I have owned two Mark Jewelers insert books-- Kid Colt Outlaw 174 & 178 -- since the late 1970s. Also found my 176 had an "8-22" large font style date stamp. Makes me wonder what else I've overlooked on some of my less explored westerns in my collection.

I hear ya, I found a MJ first jubilee last week from a collection I bought eons ago. What's the date stamp significance? I think I have seen a few.

Get Marwood & I Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) Reading this thread makes me very nostalgic. I nearly managed a full set of ASM MJI's back in the day which I thought was a great achievement for a UK collector. Here's an extract of my old collecting book - the white gaps are the ones I didn't manage to get: Does anyone here have an ASM #124? That one really bugged me. I never saw one in 10 years. I'd love to see a picture. My favourite MJI was this one, for obvious reasons! Someone in the US bought it - might have been one of you lot!? Finally, and sorry if this is old news / has already surfaced, but does anyone recall the graded ASM 121 on ebay many moons ago? Worst fake construct I ever saw. If I'm honest, I wish I'd kept my MJIs..... Edited March 11, 2017 by Marwood & I ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADAMANTIUM Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Hopefully they weren't sold out of necessity and you enjoyed them that was quite the loot you had 1 hour ago, Marwood & I said: Reading this thread makes me very nostalgic.

At my collecting peak, there was no greater feeling than spotting the blue line along the top edge. I remember spotting my first ASM 179 with the MJI line. Got it home, it was a Pizzazz insert. Still cool, but the search went on. Ended up with about 3 of them in the end. One day, I'll bore everyone with the why did I sell post. I warn you though, it'll take a week to read it ?

I probably had not opened those books since 1979. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philflound Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Was going through my collection and found a Werewolf by Night 32 with the MJ insert. ADAMANTIUM and Koschei 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finding the bigger books with the inserts is always a treat. Those first dethlock and first punisher up above are super. To date my single best insert book is my 9.2 Iron Man #55. I doubt I'll ever top that at this point. -J. Edited March 12, 2017 by Jaydogrules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philflound Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Seems like I can't find any evidence of anyone else having the WWBN 32 with the MJ insert. I posted under the WWBN 32 thread too and someone there said they never heard of one having it. Was wondering what others thought. I'm thinking of taking photos tomorrow and posting them.

awe4one Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 According to my insert spreadsheet, I have a WWBN with the insert. When I get time I'll have to find it. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Yes I'm not surprised. I've seen at least one before. There's no way books like ASM 129 and Hulk 181 would have them and not this book. -J.

Bearcatcoach Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Here is an oddity I have not seen before....the comic has a Mark Jewelers insert in the center (not unusual) but right after the cover has a slick "Mennen Millionaire" ad. Here is a couple pics....anyone else seen one of these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically, several years before a guy contacted from eBay saying he had a book with double MJI -- I flat out called him a liar. EDIT: I took a shot in the dark and found the original thread I posted on it. http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=1669354#Post1669354 I got in a small lot of ASM's today in the mail and while looking though them hopping to score a Double Covers. I was surprised that many of them did have Mark Jewelers Inserts and I got something Interesting the #324 had a Double MJI first one of these I have ever come across. jimjum12 and Stronguy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewcrewfan77 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Found a CA #180 (first Nomad) with a MJI at my LCS yesterday. Would this be considered a minor key? 5%-10% increase or less? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
