Where in the world was the Quality Control at CGC??? 42 42

I should have said "qualify" instead of quantify, but you get the picture

Email the pic you have, because I do believe that "cgc tries to quantify it" by saying as long as it is legible or some such vagueness

But that pic does look like it first that criteria, email for the grader or whomever to determine before sending. Who knows if you're lucky, maybe they could quantify it further as a mechanical error and do it for free?

Especially if you put it on the submission form to begin with, seems like they should be able to sort it out

No. CGC should never try to guess who might've signed it. How do we know you didn't write that?

It's not like it will get yellow label, so it's up to cgc

This is exactly how it should be labeled  And iirc there is no deduction for an interior sig.

Good Point!

I guess you don’t, just wanted some opinions. Thanks to all.

I'd still leave it up to CGC and let them determine, while there are points being made that are valid, still leave it up to CGC? Give them an email with the pic.

Just with all the examples, try not be too disappointed in CGC's answer

This issue was a Qualified label and the note said, "M. Wagner written on cover."

The other issue has a signature just as legible but the note didn't mention the creator by name.

I wonder if CGC has changed their policy on naming unwitnessed signatures?

I don't think so. The green label states what is merely written on the book. The yellow label specifically says, "signed by..."

Then how do you explain the blue labels that say such and such written in marker ?

Has that changed? I think is what hes getting at.

Isnt a green label what the grade would be without the marker and you can request a blue grade, which takes the grade hit for marker?

Yes.

Unless it is written on the first page like this is, then it doesn't affect the grade at all. Only problem is, what will cgc put on the label?

[ADAMANTIUM]

If it is written on the first page and legible, cgc used to to put the actual name of the signer on the label with "written in marker and or pen" added on the label. @The Meta

So no longer?

That was the question,  before the sidetrack

No worries 

But I have no idea, I was only trying to help, if OP would find out and report what cgc says that would be

Well usually its "name written in marker" 

Havent seen many actual names because they cannot verify, suppose they used to just play it fast and loose and whatever the grader felt like doing that day

Sounds about right, I was just curious

What I want is a comic book with a manufacturing error like a double cover or wrong interior inside a CGC slab with an incorrect label. That's high collectability.

Except you would have to crack it out of the slab to prove it.

Makes you wonder how many MJI , Double Cover, etc are a label swap with the book in the holder not actually having those .
