Signed comics 1 1

[Evy1979]

Hi everyone I am new to the comic book grading world. I’ve always bought but never graded anyways I was checking to see how cgc deals with signed comics. I have a 1980s tmnt comic that I had signed recently at a local convention I went to. Would that be considered one of there signature series books or are they only that when a representative from them is there to see it signed?

Hello

The yellow CGC Signature Series label is given to collectibles that have been signed by someone of significance to the item. These labels will generally be issued only to items signed under the direct observation of a CGC representative. In select instances, CGC may accept signed books directly from the signer or publisher. The signatures are then authenticated by CGC with labels indicating who signed them, when they were signed and, in some cases, where they were signed.

After the collectible is signed in the presence of a CGC authorized witness, it is immediately submitted to CGC for expert grading and encapsulation in the state-of-the-art, CGC holder that bears the prestigious yellow label.

As Mike said it must be witnessed for a signature series book. 

So your book would either get a lower grade blue label (the grade would be discounted for writing on the cover) or green "qualified" label. 

Personally, I wouldn't have it graded. Just enjoy it raw.

There are companies that will slab it for you, but unless it is a first print of  one of the first few issues, I wouldn't  do it.

CGC doesn't verify signatures.
