Hello

Today I found out at work that the new Bluecoats, Green Fingers, were completely misprinted.
It has 1 page duplicate in it, while another is not in it.
I quickly bought another one, but now I would like to know what it can be worth So this one is brand new, never read, only opened to view the 2 pages.
Someone who can help me with this?
Normally these are all taken off the market today in every store. thanks!

It is a damaged album and therefore has little or no value for many collectors.

However, there are also collectors who collect these kinds of albums. The value is what the enthusiast is willing to pay for it...

It is also included in the catalog today.

These are normally all discontinued in every store today.

Usually these kinds of albums are simply sold as a curiosity. They are rarely returned.

I expect quite a few have come into circulation.

Regular bookstores and newsstands will probably send them all back, but comic shops are guaranteed to keep some.

Is the album a special size or is there a standard size of comics?

Is no one entering the dimensions anymore? Otherwise nicely filled in, so why not that field? Did you no longer have a centimeter / tape measure / ruler with you, Arco?

And you immediately ask for more than 2 x the price you paid for yourself?

Are you sure you did that for the enthusiasts?

@Rik I totally disagree with an album that has been tampered with or if a name has been written in it, etc.. In my opinion, that is a damaged album, an album that is fresh off the press and manages to slip through the strict final checks. like a good wine over time it will only become more valuable, but then it has to happen what Arco says

Regular bookstores and newsstands will probably return them all

I hope so Arch

over time it will become even more valuable

It is the number 58 of the series. If it had been one of the first ten issues, it would have been more likely to increase in value.

The collectors who want it now, they almost have the copy in their closet. Will there be a lot of diehard collectors of the blbl in the future?

We'll know in 20 years, but I'm not predicting astronomical amounts. It will be a more expensive copy than nr 57 and 59, but it will not make you rich.

@Metalfigures,

Hans Matla has established the official standards for the comics through his catalogs. These standards are still followed within the comics world.

An incomplete album, because pages are missing, is determined by him to a value of almost nil.

~~ Batman: Jaar One, recently published by RW Uitgeverij, the classic by David Mazzucchelli and Frank Miller, alternates pages in color and black and white. We thought this was the right way to accentuate the tricks of the draftsman. Unfortunately, the is a misprint . The album is currently being reprinted. If you have a wrong copy, you can exchange it at your retailer as soon as the album is available again. That will be the case from the end of June.

Now don't regard the misprints as unique, rare anomalies that you have to pay heavily for. Do not fall for that trap if you see such specimens offered on cattle sites or elsewhere. They are worth nothing.

But in this case it remains the only real first edition that has actually appeared on the market.

As a collector I would also like to have it in it.

I would not want to exchange my HORN of the rhino for the first improved version of the HORN of the rhino.

I also do not want to exchange my story of Spirou and KWABERNOOT for the improved reprint of Spirou and KWBBERNOOT (Er is a wizard in Rommelgem).

And now you can say that this is different, but in 60 years people will also think differently about it.

Spirou and LOBSTER

I was not aware of that mistake. Unbelievable how often that error reprinted is. I also can't find a corrected cover at all.

By the way, I think a mistake in the title is of a different order than a missing page in the story.

Years ago I pointed out to the publisher that between 1951 and 2005 nothing has changed ...

No, that's why, I'm still waiting. For the time being, I will keep the first version anyway, before starting the stove with it (if a corrected version ever appears).

~~ By the way, I think there is a mistake in the title a different order than a missing page in the story.

I agree. But the question is what the collector will think about it in 60 years. I think he has 2 copies. The first edition and the adjusted REPRINT. (or how are we going to include that in the catalog? ;-)

But the question is what the collector will feel about 60 years from now.

I'll let you know, after my 115th birthday ;-)

According to the Green Book, hearing (singular) / horns (plural) as a synonym for horn / horns is still correct Dutch ...

Then you will still look fresh on your avatar!

According to the Green Booklet, hear (singular)/horns (plural) as a synonym for horn/horns is still correct Dutch...

But it is strange in one sentence with the word rhinoceros (or rhinoceros?).

It is number 58 in the series. If it had been one of the first ten numbers, it would have been more likely to increase in value.

That's the beauty of a comic misprint it doesn't matter what part of which "popular" series I don't collect Blauwbloezen myself but am now a proud owner of Blauwbloezen misprint

Rick

Catalog from 1998 and much in that catalog is outdated, that too.

Baron

That's your opinion, and what you're talking about is still hot off the press, I'd say give it some time.

There is a fact on this link

To close this message an old message from Mitra

I find printing errors more fun and attractive to discover and collect than all those commercial variations of the same book such as advertising editions and/or various sizes (mini, extra large) and binding methods (slide cover, velvet) etc.

@Baron

If many people are of the opinion that the sky is green and the grass is blue, then of course it is.

It might be nice to know that a first edition of Blauwbloezen in Dutch has a circulation of 40,000 copies, so the number of copies sold will be fairly low, I suspect.
