I finally picked up what should have completed my collection, a judge promo artist proof grim lavamancer

https://youtu.be/hwhqedAyrE4

Unfortunately I *think* there are Archenemy: Nicol Bolas Grim Lavamancer artist proofs that would've went to artist Mike Sutfin this summer and while I've reached out to him multiple times he has never responded so I"m uncertain.

The collection that was completed:

Global playset of Grim Lavamancers

4 foil and non-foil torment Grim Lavamancers in all 9 torment Languages (English, Japanese, S-Chinese, T-Chinese, German, Portuguese, French, Italian, Spanish)
4 foil and non-foil torment Grim Lavamancers in all 11 M12 Languages (English, Japanese, S-Chinese, T-Chinese, German, Portuguese, French, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Korean)
4 Foil Judge Promo Grim Lavamancer
4 Foil Fire & Lightning Grim Lavamancer
4 Archenemy: Nicol Bolas Grim Lavamancer (actually still sealed in a case of 4 Archenemy boxes)
4 Sealed Fire & Lightning Boxes

Then I've also got:

3 Torment artist proofs
1 M12 artist proof
1 Judge promo artist proof
3-4 Torment sealed booster packs left
6 Crimped torment
1 Crimp m12
4 altered M12
1 off-center m12
5 'ink error' F&L Grim Lavamancer
plus 3 digits worth of extra Grim Lavamancer

Then I've got a collection of Obstinate Familiar (over 2,000) because Grim Lavamancer was created as a result of this card and I own these original sketch Terese Nielsen did for Obstinate Familiar and 15 artist proofs (plus 1 crimp).

It's been a while since I've posted anything here and I've been stepping up my collecting in the course of the past year. So I'll share my recently created youtube series with all of you guys (which feels appropriate as it is titled 'Misprint Mail Brag')! I've got 7 episodes out so far and another one loaded up in editing. Hope you guys enjoy! Let me know if you've got any suggestions.

Here's a link to the playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bx_HQPY ... NuOS7sDhGy

I enjoyed the one episode that I watched.
I have a pile of misprint mail here myself, along with a stack of opened stuff that needs put away.
I'm hoping to work on this a little this evening.

Ok, I guess it's about time I posted a picture in this thread.
This is a variety of...
miscuts (including some connectors),
cards which are off center on the front and normal on the back,
a signed card,
blurry text,
white spot,
a crimped card,
Grimlock MTG promo / Transformers crossover
Mox Crystal
Dark Beta Scrubland
a couple playtest cards
and a square cornered foil Plains that's claimed to be a test print by an old WotC employee, for me to compare to a regular copy for verification.
(does anybody have a Portuguese Odyssey Foil Plains?)


OK, I guess you'll just have to imagine what they look like.
The image hosting site for Librarities is providing an error message that they're closing down and will no longer be hosting images. :'-(


UPDATE: I finally uploaded this picture into this Mail Day thread on May 19th 2019, so you can see it there.

UPDATE AGAIN: Just realized that I could also post the picture here so that you wouldn't need to go find it. :-D
