yup its heritage so you know I wont win /wink but I put my pitiful bid in on that and a few Don Winslow books

where at and how much?

the teen comics 35 on ebay has sold. the seller finally contacted me. Was not me who bought the book, but im betting it was this thread that caused a book sitting in her inventory for over a month to finally sell

ty Cheetah

thanks a Bunch HRC !

odd that has a diff code instead of the normal one

and no hand written date on the back cover

Re-edited the list. moved The Ranger to top section.moved Mary Marvel book back to Probable with the "not on Alans list" note

Alan can we trouble you for the full list please

Griff

Even with the additions we are way short of the 415 books from Alan's portion of the collection "confirmed and probable combined is around 120 books". but here is the edited list. I created a third catagory called "Possible Okajimas" these books are not on Alan's master list but still may be from the other 2 parts of the collection

maybe they could split the book into multiple parts "like the Gerber books". they could publish what they have finished as book 1 and then do another for the newer pedigrees and the unfinished existing pedigrees /shrug

Alan,

The list is a big thing to me, please please please give us a copy of the list ! And I want to reiterate what miracle said Thank you everyone who has been helping out !

Griff

I'm so happy I think i could cry

awsome thanks Bomber-bob !

agree with Miracle, that book does have a distributers code but I do not believe it to be the Okajima code and we would love to see your 51 book

Thanks Kevin on the list it goes

@adamstrange can you give us a shot of your mary marvel #5 please

wwcomics lists the following books as having been sold as okajima's "along with pics" someone want to see if they agree with this, because i am not sure i see any indication that these are truely Okajima's

OK here is the updated list. I also created a sub section for "Probable Okajima books" these are simply CGC books we haven't seen to verify, or Non CGC'ed books that are most likely Okajimas. If anyone feels a book in this category should go on the confirmed list PM me and tell me why ill be happy to put them up on the top list

so looks like I have my work cut out for me today thank to everyone who is posting info about the pedigree. Ill be busy today putting a new master list together for us of the known books. please please please keep posting info and scans. its a big help.

Oh and by the by I checked my wings 115 this morning and it does have the standard pencil date on the back cover along with 2 letter "MJ"

added it that's 80 of 1200 and a ton of unslabbed books I need to get organized

WTG Cheetah ! that's a new one for the list !

I would chip in

ty

@kevinj no there is no definitive list of books from the Okajima collection:(. We been trying to make one but its pretty hard to do with the limited info we have available.

 

(thumbs u

I have been looking all afternoon, the books I have will be a later books or I would have found them by now, I will keep looking

There is a draft list created for the "upcoming" book on pedigrees. The Okajima chapter was completed years ago.

and that book has been "upcoming" for ever ! I sure wish they would get around to publishing it

Can you get me a link to that info? here is where I got the staggered release date info

http://www.janm.org/projects/clasc/gila.htm

The internment camp had a paper called the Gila News Courier. im trying to see if I can access the papers online. that should give us some more info. here is a pic of the first edition front page

agree duck. im trying to find specific release dates now. no luck so far. it seems to be a staggered release "which makes sense" Gila river was split into multiple camps.

@MM or anyone who might have a copy of these books. I am still looking for images of the following books so I can add them to our registry "on page 4"
