Hey, CPG community. I just received a nice mid-grade copy of Amazing Adventures 11 (1st furry Beast), and to my surprise there was a National Diamond Sales insert in the middle of the book that I wasn't expecting.
What's your take on what this insert does to the value of this book, if anything? It's hard to find any hard and fast guidelines or advice online, and so I was just curious how folks on here typically handle these inserts.
I did some quick, rough comparisons of prices on mycomicshop.com, and it looks like they might give jewelers inserts a 40-50% bump in price, but that's based on a very quick scan and probably not very reliable.
Thanks!

 They were in Marvel and Archie Comics shortly before the Mark Jeweler inserts started. (early 70's) Value bumps should be comparable.

as well as the mark jewelers the national diamond sales were only sold on military bases only.
here is a good list of books with them in it.
Military Insert Mania (awe4one.com)
collector if you have time double check the list and if they are missing can you or someone else have them added. I would but lack of time.
there are links to a good article on the mark jewelers as well from that page.

Typically, 15 - 20% , depends on the book.
