wow.
it's always nice when you have books in your collection that have a special significance to them (such as only remaining copy, or oldest signed copy), and since i'm not going to be buying an $10,000 and up books any time soon, this was my best chance at obtaining something that becomes a center piece in my collection. i was happy just having the opportunity to meet creig, but to get the book signed and CGC'd is akin to finding a twenty dollar bill, and then realizing there's a hundred stuck beneath it.
