Thought you guys might apperciate these.

My first to signature series books. I submitted these back in January and got them back yesterday.

 

The Famous Monsters is the highest graded copy (Thanks CGC)

9 months? wow congrats on being a new father of a pair of SS!

[Raphael]

dude! those are some sweet looking books.

 

Is it safe to assume the Star Wars book is signed by the actor that was in the Chewbacca suit?

 

And that Hulk book is pretty sweet as well!

 

I must say though, the fact that you submitted the books in January and only got them back the other day is disconcerting. What took so long?

[BrianR]

Yeah, the Star Wars is autographed by Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca). That particular book was damaged during the labeling process, The label stuck to the cover. It took this long to find a replacement copy and to have Peter appear at a signing to get it signed again

Sometimes the stories behind the books are a cool as the books themselves.

Very nice Books.

Did CGC recoup you for the damage to the original copy since it was damaged during the labeling process? Did they offer any compensation like a free grading voucher for the mis-hap?

I got that Star Wars book signed for you at DragonCon for CGC. I am glad it came back as a 9.8. I was worried carrying it around since it was a magazine and all the other books I was getting done were moderns.

 

I made a window box magazine bag for that book as I do for all books I get done at shows and Peter thought I was being rediculous because he had to sign in through the window. He was reluctant and overall not very friendly, but was still able to get it done.

[BrianR]

Thanks for getting it for me!!!

 

 

Yes, CGC did replace the damaged copy for free.

[BrianR]

They did offer free voucher but I didn't get it. I am assuming the fact I recieved a 9.8 copy canceled that out. No worries.

Just a side note: we've mentioned this to many Witnesses before, but if you do decide to use window bags to protect your books when they are getting signed PLEASE make sure that you put them in regular bags when you submit the books to CGC to ensure that they are protected.

Does CGC have the all employees must wash their hands signs in the bathroom?

[Kevin Boyd]

Probably. (thumbs u

I always do Kevin, so I assume that this comment was not directed towards me.

[Kevin Boyd]

Not directed at anyone in particular Dan, just something the guys in the receiving room remind me to tell people about on a semi-regular basis.
