Guessing this has been talked about but didn't find anything on my brief search so thought I'd bring it up.

 

Recently noticed the last two graded books I purchased are both from the year I was born which got me wondering what other books are from 1974.

 

Turns out it was a good year for collecting with books including:

Hulk 181

ASM 129

Doctor Strange #1

....among many others but these are the big ones I've noticed so far.

 

Just moved ASM #129 to the top of my want list as the other two are the ones I recently purchased.

 

Anyone else collecting books specific to your birth year?

My birth month is May 1966. To my great pleasure, I was recently able to buy the below DC comic rack which was only in use for about year commencing around the time of my birth month:

Consequently, I'm now picking up every DC comic cover dated May 1966 to display on my matching rack. By "matching," I mean check out the Go-Go checkerboard styling:
