CGC Label - "From the Collection of _________"

[ChrisInBaltimore]

Not me- I don't want 100's of different 'from the collection of's' in my collection, and I wouldn't want to have to pay to relabel them.

 

While a neat idea for the private collector, I do wonder if it'd hurt resale value. It would be sort of like the books you see signed to certain individuals.

 

I'd still love to do it and someone from CGC should chime in on of it is possible. I have some books I'll never sell and the notation would look pretty nice.

A few others come to mind. I have books from 'Don and Maggie Thompson' and 'Al Williamson' collections. There are plenty of Don Rosa collection books too.

 

Since they're all comic people in one way or another it's kind of cool - though it didn't stop me cracking them out.

Man I hope we can do that now. I would have "From the Oakman29 'Hard Morning Wood' Collection".

Aren't those listed on the right side of the label, like pedigrees, though?

This is an actual notation right under the comic title.

[Hibou]

Having your name on the CGC label would be pretty cool, especially from the likes of some of the more notable characters on here.

 

What if you could designate your own pedigree as well?

 

Anyways, here's one that's a little different.

 

From the estate of...

 

 

[Mark 1]

Didn't Jaime Graham do this with his collection?

I don't think they were marked by CGC as such but I do believe that they came with some certificate or something

I suppose some people may not like it, but I can see where a provenance notation, where a pedigree is not applicable, might be useful.

And cool.

It's kinda like the baby on board signs. It starts off as a good idea, but will eventually be over used to the point it becomes annoying.

[CBT]

Is it sort of like one step below a Pedigree, from a collection of note per se

I recently saw "Former Baby on Board" and found it amusing.

[Mayor006]

can I get them to put "From the office of the Mayor" on mine?

And Phil Kaltenbach (a CGC employee who passed) got the same:

 

[Fan Boy]

That would be cool to have this kind of label with my name. Who knows maybe when I'm old and retired... I can watch my collection being auctioned away with my name on the labels.

 

If CGC can do that with these people, even their own employees ... what is stopping us collectors wanting the same thing? All's fair in all in there.

 

[Mayor006]

I could see me getting one of my registry sets done like this or a personal set I'm building like the birth month books done with this, but I doubt I would do my entire collection.

[Vikingreed]

I am guessing we can't label our own comics, but it would be so great if we could...

[kav]

pretty sure 'from the collection of Kav' would go straight in the trash even if it was Action #1

[MatterEaterLad]

The provenance thing is for sizable collections from notable collectors. Like...

 

[Vikingreed]

But that one also has the pedigree notation on the right side.
