  • Keith Adams is a misprint specialist. His collection ranges from all sorts of misprints and MTG oddities that date back to test cards for Alpha! In this episode, we look inside Keith's collection and ask him about the world of misprints.

    Holy cow. I was linked to this video from Reddit, but you and I went to ALCON 2002. You let me stay in your hotel room with a friend of yours, and you let me buy a pair of socks from you because my luggage was lost by Greyhound (I did the shirtless Bedrock Anthem). Your e-mail used to start with something like FVZappa, I think. The Zappa shirt you're wearing in this vid tipped me off. I had to throw a shout out to you. Thanks for letting me crash in your room back then, and thanks for the socks.

    Even among Magic The Gathering collectors who do seemingly crazy things, Keith is the craziest genius in a positive way - you can only admire his focus on the aim and commitment to collecting misprints.

    I ran into Kieth yesterday at Illuminaudi in Cincinnati. He is a big Zappa fan and we mostly talked music. He did take a look at my Alternate 4th Edition Wrath of God and pretty much authenticated it on sight.

    back in Shadows Over Innistrad, I got a miscut Sorin, Grim Nemesis
    the miscut was just that the border on top was way thicker than it should have been, so it wasn't that crazy of a miscut
    what was crazy was that I pulled two Sorins, both with the same miscut

    Hello guys, I just started a weekly segment on TH-cam doing this! It's me, same guy in the video. I started under a new, more fitting name other than zappabowie. Also, there will be a written article to go along with them on Eternal Central, so if you enjoyed this, it's only a fraction of what I have to show you! I have a red Time Walk, and a Black Lotus that costs 3 mana! Please tune in!

    Subbed! What's crazy is I had Magic decks with me at Alcon in my backpack (not my luggage, fortunately) to keep me occupied on the bus trip. If only I had known you played! Heh. I'm doing just fine, and I am glad to see that you are, too. I still play, so I look forward to catching up on your videos and to more content. Glad you saw my comment even though I replied to the wrong person. You and like, 2 other people were the ones who piqued my interest in Zappa, so thank you for that, too.

    That's without a doubt one of the most impressive collections I have ever seen, and I've seen a few in my days! I wouldn't even want to venture a guess as to how much time and money he has devoted to it, but here's to hoping that he never ever loses it or splits it up. The Smithsonian just might have to open a new wing.

    I have a misprint Volcanic Island revised... worth anything more than the 120-180 it's going for on ebay?

    • @MaddaTheApache
      @MaddaTheApache 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ummmmm absolutely. Considering Volcanic Islands are worth around 300 each, I'm assuming a misprint of a card like that is worth a pretty penny. I highly recommend not using eBay. I'd try and get in touch with someone from StarCityGames or Channel Fireball.com, they have people who specialize in stuff like that. Most people on eBay do not know proper pricing on cards.
