This is my first post and first time on this site. I have a lot of signed books and wanted to know how to get then authenticated. I was also interested in having them graded, What are the steps taken to have this done. I am willing to pay whatever the charge is. For example: I have a Lady Death in Leather with at least 7 signatures.

Years ago I purchased a large Silver Age DC collection from a collector here in Phoenix. The books, ranging from 1963 through 1966, have white pages and great colors...very supple too! The original owner of these gems printed his initials (ironically!) "RAT" in the middle of the indicia on the inside splash page. If not for the initials, many of these books look to be in the VF+ 8.5 or higher range. What is the criteria that CGC uses to grade books like this? Any help would be appreciated.

I'm hoping I can get some witnesses for some Roy Thomas books. Thanks in advance.

Are there any facilitators out there that will be attending the Nickel City Comic Con in Buffalo, NY from May 18th-20th? I would like to try and get something signed by Jason Mewes.

I was wondering if there is any con or private signing Stan Lee will be doing either the rest of 2017 or 2018 that we can send comics to to have signed and CGC'd and have sent back to Canada? Thanks everyone.

Lets say I order one of those Atlas Signature Series comics. If I CGC it will I get a Blue, Yellow, or Green label?

Newbie autograph question...If I purchase an already signed comic from the publisher (in this case the new "John Wick" signed by author Greg Pak), would it be in my best interest to attempt to have the comic signed by the artist (Giovanni Valletta) and witnessed by a CGC rep prior to CGC submission? I've got no idea if the Greg Pak signature comic is part of a "limited edition" or if there's any sort of authentication from publisher Dynamite. Also, since I'm on the John Wick subject...any thoughts on purchasing the variant covers? I hate the variant cover concept, but the second variant of Issue #1 looks great.

Hey all! I'm not quite sure if this post belongs here or not, but I couldn't really find a thread that it fell under. Anyways, a fellow collector friend of mine was thinking about selling his "Marvel -- The Characters and Their Universe" HC book that he's been collecting signatures in for 13 years. He has over 150 signatures and remarks, from artists such as Stan Lee, Jim Lee, Jae Lee, Herb Trimpe, Dіck Ayers, Joe Kubert, Frank Miller, Larry Hama, John Romita Sr, J Scott Campbell, George Perez, Dave Cockrum, and Joe Sinnott to name a few. The book itself is in pretty beat up shape. There is some water damage along the bottom, and the spine definitely has some issues, but overall this book is still an amazing piece. I'm just not sure how someone would go about pricing this. If anybody would be able to give their opinions and thoughts it would be greatly appreciated!

Hi i was wondering if anyone knows of anyone who can do CGC witness signing at san francisco comic con in sept?

Hi there! Noob here. I've read through the posts on the SS board and still have some questions for the Sig Series. In the past I've had several comic books that were submitted to local comic book shops for witnessed signing and submission to CGC. Some books were taken by these shops to local cons and had multiple signatures on each book. These books are still the prized gems of my small collection of books I've collected over the past 3 years. For my 40th birthday celebration, I'm planning on going out of the US and attend the FanExpoCanada 2017. My plan is to get multiple signatures on a Wonder Woman 75th Anniversary #1. Basically, whoever had an opportunity to write, pencil, ink, or color for WW, I want there Sig. My questions are as follows: 1. Is there a CGC contact person that will be at FanExpoCanada 2017 that can help facilitate this process? 2. If yes to question #1, when requesting for a CGC Sig witness, how do we get in contact with that person? And how do we go about the "multiple" signature route? I'm worried that standing in long lines to meet artists and writers might present a BIG challenge in a big convention like this, including witnesses running around from table to table and somehow missing my opportunity for a witnessed Sig. My plan is to get as many signatures on this book and hopefully a CGC witness will be there to witness the artist/writer at time of signing. 3. As far as for the CGC witness, is there a fee charged by the person WITNESSING the person signing? 4. Since I'm from the US, will there be any extra shipping fees or customs fees as far as submitting books at FanExpoCanada and then final delivery to US, etc? Thank you in advance for your help.

Will there be any facilitators at the North Texas Comic Book Show July 15th & 16th, 2017 for witnessing signatures?

So, it seems at Star Wars Celebration, there will be 'Authenticators' attaching hologram stickers to anything that the celebrities sign. This is in order to prevent forgeries and such. How are the facilitators going to handle this? Have you guys worked it out with the Topps Authenticators to not sticker comics and such, or will CGC accept the stickers along with the signatures when a CGC facilitator witnesses the signing? Just curious to know how this will work out and what to avoid. Asking, as I plan to get some stuff signed this year. I know some people will not want one of these guys attaching a sticker really quick and then have CGC downgrade it due to the sticker. If CGC allows the sticker with the autograph, then I am all for it. As the stickers are pretty cool hologram ones, but.... Here's the link: Star Wars Authenticators

Do obtaining multiple signatures on a book you eventually get graded/slabbed devalue the book at any point?

I have a Secret Wars #8 yellow label. Certified at a 8.5 My question is: Can I get CGC to crack open the slab, clean, press and resubmit and still keep the yellow label? (hopefully to get a bump in grade) thanks for reading
