Hi What label should i grade this as ?..I have an Edge of Spider Verse #2 Fasimile edition With Varient wrap . The extra cover wrap has an unverified signature ..My Question is which cover will be graded, as i dont want the name in marker to affect the grade..Cheers

Hello @Floridamaxx!

Thank you for your question. This book would receive a Qualified label for the unwitnessed signature. As for which cover will be graded, unless this was a mistake (double-cover misprint) the outermost cover would be the cover that was graded. In the case of it being a double cover misprint, both covers are graded and the highest grade is the over all grade on the label while the other is written on the notes. Let us know if you have any other questions!

Are you sure about this?

I'd be more worried about the other part of that response (bold above).

Shouldn't the ENTIRE book be graded?

He means that books like Lobo's Back #1 are not considered triple covers, so the interior covers are considered pages instead.

@MattM CSThank you for clearing that up.

 

One more question, and maybe this is outlined on CGC's website somewhere ... if not, maybe it should be.

How is a double-cover comic graded? What's the policy?

CGC has their own Youtube channel, that’s where I found it.

I just looked at a bunch of slabbed LB #1s and none of them had the grades for the "interior covers"  "written on the notes".
