Never posted my long ago restored copy.

Sorry about the crappy photo.

Its more likely that the specialized labels only come in blue.  If the resto were on the notes but not on the label then I would be concerned.  I actually like the look a lot and bet more people who have restored books will do the same.  Great looking copy!

Thanks. I was actually thinking the same thing regarding the specialized label as a possible answer. Cheers

Well here's an interesting case. Would like some input. I've had this pretty pro-restored Spidey #13 since the 90s. I finally decided to send it in for grading recently. I opted for one of the new Spidey labels. Grade was posted and it came back 7.5, restored as expected, category A-2. I received the book back today and it's a blue universal label but it still lists the restored work that was performed. It doesn't list the A-2 category on the label. Any thoughts on this? Did CGC make an error and just not use a purple label? 

Not a key per se, but I've always loved #33 with its classic photo cover. Tougher in high grade too.

My ancient copy that I had restored in the 90s. Should have left it alone

This is my pro restored copy pre-slab. It eventually came back a 6.5 (B-5).

Yeah I recall buying this direct from my LCS at the time of release; I know mine is signed as well. I don't recall the press total of signed vs. not signed. I'll have to dig mine out to confirm the print is the same.

My entry, sorry about the glare.

Received this back from CGC late 2018, thanks to Joey on the press

I believe every copy came signed this way.
