Few of my favs

Although it can be done, in my personal experience CGC is not very helpful/cooperative unless you are doing a bunch of books at once.  Also many artists hate it because it is a pain. 

Can’t decide if this is on topic   Either way this makes me laugh every time I see it  

Mine worked well

A few recent additions

@ivdyer

You bought my Barker good from Comiclink!  You got a steal on that book!  Enjoy!

From SDCC

This Super Mario Bros book has been on my “list get signed” list for year.  Thank goodness I finally got the chance this year.

That is awesome!! You gonna get Beverly D'Angelo on it too? I know she will be at Rhode Island CC, and I may have seen her somewhere else too. Grades on stuff like that do not matter much to me. Did you have it pressed?

I think I am only doing Chevy,  I really prefer one sig books.  I might try to get Beverly on this one:

I would really love Christie Brinkley on one.  Meet Christie about 2 years ago at a wine event for her new wine, she was very sweet and still an absolute knockout in person. 

Yes this was pressed. 

Chevy Chase!  Super excited about this one Twin Cities had done for me.  It was short notice so I didn’t have a chance to hunt down a high grade copy.  But still very happy with this!  

But here are a couple of better ones I have: 

Here are a couple of those German variants that I have had awful luck with. 

Note the nose

Full streak, it just would not dry

Lots of German blanks but they are awful to draw on.  The ink never dries on them and they streak.

One cod the coolest sig series books I’ve ever seen.  It belongs to @littlebill

She Hulk 1 is one of the most rare Marvel blanks.  They go for around $50-75.

From "collectibles we grade" section "CGC grades most magazines that fit within the following dimensions: 11-1/2" tall x 8-7/8" wide x 1/2" thick (except magazines with hard covers or jeweled covers)."

Again, I don't want a graded magazine, just the signature certified.  Similar to this poster I had done a while back that was 13"x13"

Heard back from CGC and they said you could not do that because it won't fit. That said, I am not sure why you couldn't.  I have other "soft" slab items that are much larger than a Life magazine.  All I want is to certify the sig not grade the magazine.  Oh well.....on to another plan

No one knows the answer?  Who can I email at CGC?

Anna Paquin books are in!  Love the inscriptions.

That wasn't what he was saying.  In fact, he even said "he wasn't sketching at the show at all".  

@Brooklynmet

What he was saying was that there will be a binder at his table with some pre-finished sketches for sale.  He'll likely have these Nick Fury ones for around $100 and more detailed ones of various characters for much higher.

Stranger things have happened, but I wouldn't count on him sketching on the spot for you at the show.

Correct.  He doesn't sketch at the show he had about 5 pre-done Fury's for $100.  They were all gone in the first 15 mins.  After that all pre-done sketches were over $1000.

I won the lottery to get a Mia Farrow sig at Fan Expo Dallas and would like to get a Life Magazine signed.  I believe Life Magazine is too large to fit in the standard magazine size "hard" holders, but was curious if CGC would put it in one of their "soft" holders and just authenticate the sig (not grade the magazine).  Does anyone know if this is an option?

Congrats!!

What size is that? Is that one of the floppy holders? I have not seen the new ones without the 3 holes. I wish they would grade signed album sleeves......the celeb possibilities would skyrocket!

It is 13"x13".  Yes it is a floppy holder.

Ice MF T

I got this one a couple of years ago in Dallas.  She was very nice and very inexpensive.  I think it was $25 for a sig

Yeah those Barb Wire books are hard to get in high grade.  This was after pressing
