According to @Jennifer F. here

"Every book that leaves our office does go through quality control. "

So Jennifer is admitting they have completely incompetent QC people. At least we got that settled.

Received this today.  I know it’s a tear, but they could’ve at least folded it back into place.  Make it look “better”.

I have had a few books, where the paper was a bit dry, and when I tried to fold a corner back over, it came off.

most of the damage is the same-a smashed corner.  Several books in one submission with the same dent-its as if somone is shoving a pile of books at a wall prior to slabbing.  And then QC doesnt notice.  This is all speculation on my part.

ASM 11.

I have the book and it still took me a little research to figure it out.

This one isn't really a QA problem. Longstanding slabbing policy has been to not fold down tears and flaps and the like if there's any realistic chance of losing the fragment by doing so. With a piece that small, and those page edges kinda beige... I wouldn't have expected them to risk fragmentation for the sake of appearance.

Interesting.  I'd never heard that (or don't remember hearing it) and I've been around forever. (Sorta) makes sense.

PQ on this book was OW/W, so I know they didn't consider the pages "fragile".  It is a very small fragment.  I still would have tried to fold it back.  But, if that's the policy, so be it.  

Thanks for the insight.

I thought the caption (and the following comments on the facebook post were spot on)

Those are customer's books they're laying on?

[sckao]

Signature Series books in multiples so I assume they are CGC's private stash of books they had the signers do while they were there.

Meaming the slabs go THROUGH quality control, they don't STOP there before being shipped out..

Not a clue they posted it on instagram/fb and comments have been very kind especially in regards to scratched cases and QC issues.

They must have an awesome social media handler. 26 comments, all irrelevant or praising the signing

There are people saying it's a photoshop picture that they created for fun. He's not actually laying on any books.
