In-House Private Signing: Frank Miller & Klaus Janson 2 2

[thesink]

Here's my post on the timeline:

Posted April 12

According to twitter the Miller/Janson signing occurred this weekend. So, based on the CGC time-frame of 3 weeks for grading and 6 weeks for pressing and grading the expected turnaround dates are May 3rd and May 24th. Let's see how close they are (mine are in for pressing and grading).

Just checked mine and it says “Scheduled for Grading”.

Did you get your pressed?

No

Thanks. I got mine pressed so they're likely running a little behind. Looks from Twitter like they'll be out late May, June hopefully!

I'm sending that one in too @Ed Hanes. I think it's a good Janson cover.

An FYI on Remarques:   You can get a single or double Remarque, but no signatures with those.  I wanted to get a Miller sig and Janson Remarque on a Dark Knight Returns, but it is not available.

I know, that sucks. And I don't get it why it couldn't happen.

Me either. The exact example was in the ad lol... I emailed them, but alas no.

I'm not complaining though, still a great opportunity for sigs of my favorites.

they may be concerned about the order of the signing & remarque and worried that placement of the sig may impact placement of the remarque or versa vice, one could run into another, all sorts of fanboy nightmare scenarios.

That's a good point. Of course I was ready with the signing locations all marked out and it was DK 1 which has oodles of space : )

I was thinking it might be “fun” to see if we can figure out how many DKR first printings were signed at this event. Below is the census report as of today since I don’t think any have made it through yet. Anyone want to guess what the final number will be? I guess I’ll look again around July.

Mine is in sfg right now Im hoping for a 9.8 .but those are hard to come by with this book. ..I’m guessing another 700 books..

Mine went to "Scheduled for Grading" today.  No pressing. Prior SS.  I can't wait to see the remarques!

[Matt1982]

I submitted a number of books, and one of them went to "Scheduled for Grading" today as well. It was pressed, but also submitted pretty early after the signing was announced. The rest are still showing "Received."

[DurstDesigns]

I have 4 books, with pressing, that moved into SFG early this week.  Excited to get them back and curious to see that special label for the DK books.

[thesink]

So the stats are now changing with 20 Signature series books added. Another interesting thing that should come of this is that there should be a change in universal graded books as they've been cracked and at least some will include the cracked label (or CGC will) and remove it from the census (you can see that the universal 9.6's decreased by 1 from 1209 to 1208). My guess is 750 DKR books are signed at this event.

Got my book back. Now triple signed and with Miller and Jansen remarques.

So cool.

60 SS added since April 25th.

Any idea approximately how long your book sat in the "Grading/Quality Control" stage?

It went to Sched. for Grading on April 28th. 
"Scheduled" delivery was May 10th. FedEx lied and said the business was closed and was unable to deliver (they do this, I believe, when they have too many packages to deliver and want to quit early). 
I believe it only was in that stage for 2 or 3 days and sat in the grading stage for almost all of the rest of the time.
