10 books; 19 Signatures

41 books; 85 SignaturesThe attempt for the convention was to get a few books signed. Bagofleas handed me some books in Baltimore and sent a few others a couple weeks later. All in all I had ten books from him for CGC to witness. These were his treasures, especially the first annual for our beloved New Mutants.For this convention I opted to pick the comics I own that I thought would get a 9.8. I carefully picked and chose books I thought would get a 9.8 with a pressing. I decided to add pressing because unfortunately I don't know what is considered to be a manufacturing defect. Out of the thirty books I ran around with I allowed my self to keep three.A 41st book was chosen while at the NYCC. This was given to me courtesy of Image Comics, J. Michael Straczynski, and Tom Mandrake. The latter being the cover artist for my New Mutants #15. I will get into this later. I walked around artist alley and the main floor for the signatures with CGC Witnesses in tow.I would have been finished first thing Saturday Morning if it wasn't for the imposed limit of two by DC for Greg Capullo and Scott Snyder. This added an extra day. With hindsight clarity being at 100% I'm wondering if I could have done more. The first day I was nervous and fearful. I only had two books I cracked while Bagofleas had ten. I made his my first priority. After the NYCC I completed 19 signatures on ten books for my younger brother. I added 31 books with 66 signatures bringing my total for this convention to be 41 books with a total of 85 signatures. Makes me wonder what's next.Thanks for Reading TnerbTo see old comments for this Journal entry, click here. New comments can be added below.
