Artist`s signature in book.

[Old_Skool]

 

My NM- copy of ASM #331 has what appears to be Erik Larson`s signature on the first page down over the indicia.Of course I have no way of verifying or proving it.I never noticed it in the past.Just curious how that could affect the grade of the book.I guess it is possible somebody had it signed at a con or something.

 

Larson`s work on ASM was nice but it always kind of comes across as McFarlane Light.

No affect on the grade, but it would receive a Green Label.

[FFB]

It would probably not affect the grade at all unless the book is a candidate for 10.0. It would get a blue label with a notation that the name "Erik Larsen" was written on the first page in pen.

I don't think that's correct, if the signature is on the inside as opposed to the cover.

OK, then explain this to me:

 

Linky dink

 

In fact, why don't you find me one book with an interior signature that got a green label because of the signature.

[FFB]

Another one in a blue label holder.

 

[FFB]

Ooooh, looky! Another one in a blue holder! '

 

[divad]

No affect on the grade, but it would receive a Green Label.

 

It wouldn't Affect the grade, but would have an Effect on the grade!

 

It would have no more or less an effect than anyone's signature in ink on the book, and it would receive a Green Label.

[FFB]

Again with the blue holder!

 

[divad]

Ooooh, looky! Another one in a blue holder! '

 

These are both excused from the normal practice as they are, ahem, exempt from such trivialities.

Missed the part about the sig. being on the first page. I thought it was on the cover

oops FFB, me too! (I guess that's why we're not lawyers!)

[FFB]

Blue holder, blue holder, send Jack Kirby's interior signature right over!

 

 

Still waiting to see a single green label book with an interior signature as the cause.

Green label is the Qualified Grade right?Meaning that for all intents and purposes it grades at, say 9.2, but that the signature does not fit current grading criteria,so the book w/ sig. can`t be graded as equal to a like book without sig.

 

Maybe I should have said a qualified 9.2 is the grade it would get if the signature were not present?

 

I think I got it...

[nik]

Youre right ,
