Recent issues with the additions of "Qualified Signature Series" books to the Registry.

The Qualified Signature Series or Yellow/Green label applies to a comic book that has been signed by someone of significance to the comic, and also exhibits a qualifying defect or unwitnessed signature. For example, if a comic book missing a page and is signed by Stan Lee under direct observation of a CGC representative, the book will be graded as if the page was not missing, and given the Qualified Signature Series label with a notation of the missing page on the label. Another example is if Stan Lee signed a high grade comic book under direct observation, but the cover also exhibited a signature not observed by a CGC representative. Stan Lee's witnessed signature (Signature Series) and the other signature (Qualifier in high grade) would result in a Qualified Signature Series label.

Many Collectors Society Members have been excited to add these books to their Registry. Unfortunately, when this new label designation was established, the ability for books with these type of labels to be added to the Registry had not been addressed. Our web developers have been contacted and the new labels will be added to the Registry, for your convenience, when the new website upgrade is made live. This upgrade is expected to go live sometime after the holidays. The CGC is sorry for any inconvenience that this may cause. If you have any additional questions, comments, or concerns, please contact Mollie Davis at mdavis@cgccomics.com.
