Good evening,

I have the album The fruit makers of Jommeke (see here front side , backside and cover ). Coincidentally I saw at lordernie in his shop that he also has the album. However, his copy has a different cover page in black ink? I asked him if this is correct and he confirmed it. He has indicated that only one variant from 1973 is known in Matla (currently). The big question is, I think this is a new variant, but from which year? 1973? Who helps?

Greetings Vincent

For the time being I have added my copy as a new item to the catalog and the two variants with an -a or -b.

Is definitely a different issue, because the title page is completely different (different heading) and I think the cover is paler, maybe there is a Flemish and a Dutch issue ?? And what about the other jommekes ????

Ps title page added

What about all the sellers who have their comic on the wrong item because they couldn't see anywhere (except our smart vvanaspears) that there were two issues? Will every seller be notified so that he can check it ??

Sellers should just take a good look at their copy and if they have / had a different version, they should have added it to the CataWiki Catalog. Unfortunately that is too much trouble for many sellers :(. I actually think they should experience that themselves if they sell the wrong copy. Every collector also looks carefully at his own comics? If I have a Tintin, I also look very carefully first. which version / edition I have.

Super admins have the option to send a collective message to all owners and sellers of a particular item.

In the case of this album, I did this tonight.

Rik, you were the super admin I was looking for. But that's why you didn't have to send the message twice ;)

But would there actually be different title pages of most of the Jommekes of that year?

According to the Matla in my possession, I didn't find a second copy from the fruit makers either and if you can't trust Matla who will ;)

That is always a bit of a guess.

This may be a very early reprint (so 2nd edition).

@ lordernie : At least I came across it again yesterday on the album Choco kidnapped by Jommeke. You have an item of that in your shop, but ginoke25 has the same item with a different title page . The question is what is the best thing I can do now? I have the same variant as you have, can/should I enter it separately now and then indicate that 'our' item is in red-brown ink and the others in black?

Edit: The question regarding adding an extra item so that there is a -a and a -b variant has the following background. I only have the red-brown version myself. To then split a 'shared item' into red-brown and black on your own, I think that's a bit too energetic. Should I report this on the forum or just add it?

@ rikMooren : If so, which of the two is the early reprint? Which is described in Matla, for example. Don't have a Matla or other reference book of your own, only have Catawiki. ;-)

Unfortunately, the Matla also does not answer your question :-)

In fact, it happens quite regularly.

I haven't looked at the whole list, but Ernie has both a black and a brown variant for sale at Luilekkerland 23710 .

And also De plastic whale 23698 exists with a black or brown title page.

Surely there are more. For example, seller comic collector-be at De fwietmachine 23699 and Toddlerweelde 23725 mentions that it concerns a "black print" while lordernie has a brown one for sale. With Princess Pott 23723 it is just the opposite.

It is questionable whether you will ever find out which is the first version, but it is customary to give the letter a to the most common variant. However, you can only properly assess which one it is if you contact all collectors and sellers of this series. Until then, it makes little difference which is called a and which is b, as long as it is implemented consistently. Those title pages will have to be shown as image 3, so that the difference is clear to everyone.

PS Is it just the title page, by the way, or is the entire interior brown or black?

I found this extensive Jommeke website , the creator of which might be able to provide more insight into the issue. If anyone wants to take the trouble to email them and refer to this discussion. (Catawiki is not yet on its links page.)

Variants of the first edition are known of various Jommekes albums from the first series. Just take a look at De Jommekesklub.

It was a cheap comic and probably people did not look very closely at the paper and the ink that was used. If the blue ink ran out, they just took red to continue printing, I suspect.

Zwendel,

has nothing to do with the ink, is completely different title page and without a computer it was quite a lot of work to make another title page. think more that there is a Dutch and Flemish version issued. But then one would have to check the entire comic if no real "Flemish" words were translated.

I wouldn't do that, but I would add an a and mention which variant it is in the details.

For the future, maybe require 3rd photo = title page for all comics.

lordernie : I wouldn't do that, but I would add an a and state which variant it is is in the details.

All right. But then you do get that collectors have linked their copy to the 'wrong' item. Is that collateral damage or also just let a (super) administrator know?

Boekenmagazijn : PS By the way, is it only about the title page, or is the entire interior brown or black?

In my copies, the entire interior is either reddish brown or black. The only thing that differs in a number of cases is the layout of the title page.

Have provided the albums below with a third image and stated the printing color of my copy and other characteristics in the details. Perhaps something like a message to the collectors or sellers of these albums?

@ lordernie : There are quite a few albums of which you have the counterpart in your shop. This means that the variant in your shop no longer always corresponds to the item in the catalogue. Since I don't have 'you' albums, I can't add them to the catalog. :-(

Dear Jommeke enthusiasts.

Around the first editions of Jommeke there is certainly a kind of fog. Finding information about what was published and when is extremely difficult. The publishers of that time no longer exist and so many archives have simply disappeared.

To check the authenticity of a first press, you really have to keep an eye on a lot of rules. There is a manual on this on my website. You click at 'Info' (the blue question mark at the bottom) and then in the newly appeared menu on 'Features First edition'. Hopefully this will take you a long way.

If you want to know something specific about Jommeke, feel free to give us a call. Can easily go to the Jommekessite & gt; www.stripheld.net

We also keep checking everything for more info and thus allow the website to accommodate even more information.

A link to Catawiki will also be included within the website.

The (for now) last Jommeke albums that I have added or modified.
