- 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.
is that last photo richard and keith playing with the test cards?!
OH YEAH
I'm still going "HOLY SHIT SOMEONE STILL HAS THE ORIGINAL ALPHA PLAYTEST CARDS?!"
That is the most amazing thing I've ever seen
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!
Love your channel and I had to comment given this has gone 11 years without a reply. Really enjoy seeing your collection! Are you still monitoring your TH-cam?
I get notifications still, yes!
@@themisprintguy holy Shinto! I really love your stuff and the contribution you made to preserving info about development. Are you thinking about producing vids or writing? And are you still collecting? Thanks much for your time.
This collection has to be worth millions, or tens of millions today.
Every card looks like that now tho
I have a pre-alpha Test print Weakness, Keith told me his is still missing that one. I have talked to him several times online, he is a very nice guy.
I have both been rejected and approved to play it in a tourney. It's up to the head judge.
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.
I tear up anytime i see that dragon whelp. One day I will d=have one of the three
4:54 and that's how flip-cards were made!
@necrofeo This was actually discussed earlier tonight. We will do one maybe early next year. And, I set up this more name appropriate account & are doing a weekly video. So please do check it out!
That Tropical Island... O_O
Great video as always. Very interesting topic.
those same sheet cards are awesome!
th-cam.com/video/uIM5iekN4bc/w-d-xo.html
Here are just a few of mine Keith doesn't have or will ever have. I will be keeping these in the video! All subscribers much appreciated! @zappabowie mercadian masques foil brainstorm isn't a rare...there is an entire sheet out there. Good luck to us on finding more!
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.
go to the dumpster area of the MTG printing press. u will find tons of these rejects. i used to work a similar place. these are common.
My favorite misprint is at 1:06!
Really epic stuff
Make another video of Keith's music memorabilia collection!
he will make a branch of his own with his misprint gallery someday.
you should post 2 videos a week because i looove your videos thank you =]
I had a overgrown battlements with a blank back.
hey missprint guy i have a sweet missprinft from m13..its the blue ledgend merfolk guy..
its KRAAZYYY
@zappabowie Nice collection, and nice tshirts as well!
Pre-Alpha cards! omg
now where r my missprints?
(and could sum1 buy Keith some dumbbells and protein powder)
Seeing these in a ring binder is brutal.
@zappabowie u have a great collection of magic memories, they should do part 2 3 4 of this vid to see more of ur rare cards :)
Does Keith have a channel or email do you know?
that colorless blue ele blast, is that playable?
I have a incorrectly cut Koth of the Hammer. Its front image is all the way on the right side of the card with no black border. Wonder if it's even worth anything?
@themisprintguy cool thanks for the reaply, good news :)
holy fuck those alpha pre test cards
I so want that candelabra :(
No shot I see a thumbnail from a 12year ago video and in the thumbnail there's my City of Brass. Wtf that's crazy. I wonder if that an exact copy miscut
guys can you please tell me the name of the sound and the artist which has been used for the end credits? much appriciated
@zappabowie OMG u are a real Frank Zappa fan xD. Greetings from a Zappa and Magic fan from Spain!
@McShieldBash In a dumpster yeah, but they throw those away. That's how they become hard to find.
i have 2 cards that are have that "crimpped" thing on the end. not valuable, right?
whats the name of the song that starts at 0:15?
4:55
A front on both sides? I have a ton of cards like that!
misprint candlebra of tawnos. Fucking nice lol
That keith guy should buy a house with those.
A friend of mine has a misprinted (I don't remember what the mistake was or what edition it was from) Black Lotus that he claims is worthless but after watching this video I'm not so sure that he's correct.
you should PM him in youtube
Has he ever heard of The Proposal card? :D
depends on what cards they are
I have a misprint Volcanic Island revised... worth anything more than the 120-180 it's going for on ebay?
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.
thanks for this awesome nerd video
nice collection!!!! i have a mana vault (in spanish) 5th edition bad misspelled :) , this does not say that adds mana
@BoilMyKettle Thanks man, come to a Kentucky/ Ohio/ Indy area store or show & I might be there... I started a channel a while back using this username now.
So they do have a Yoda for magic.
Probably not much more than a regular K.o.t.H. He said that miscuts are really only worth a lot to serious collectors if you can see another card.
@McShieldBash but then again, u can't time travel to 1994... lol
check out "themisprintguy"
he has a youtube channel and releases videos every couple weeks
shows off some amazing misprints and really cool cards
4:56 worlds first trasnform card
haha. most certainly not, then. one is a double sided checklist card, and the other is a Terramorphic expanse. they were both in the same pack.
hey lol its keith
its the misprint guy!?
if they are older then innistrad u migth impresse someone!
I'm a magic fooo-ooo-oool :D
Does he have an Instagram?
@hoboxjohn You play i draw? >_>
your music choice was bad imo. it adds an uninviting ambiance to an otherwise interesting story. he's collecting such incredible artifacts about the magic the gathering production. they may even yield insights of how they developed their printing.
My first thoughts exactly
Misti😂
Woah man, was just talking about AlCon the other day. Hope you are doing well. If you play MtG you should subscribe to THIS username, that's a dead channel. Regards, Keith
was pretty ipnotic
Relax, it's me. That is a dead channel, I made a name appropriate one. See? Zappa fan, Bowie fan, Magic fan.
I have a pre-alpha deerbra and no its not for sale. K thanx bye.
First
wow pre alpha cards ?=!!!!! wtf !!!
This video is kinda creepy
So these are the people that WotC keeps "protecting" with the reserved list.
