Yes, signed Books (paper with words and no pictures).  California bookstores put up a petition to rescind these ridiculous rules when they first became active.  They were able to have "Books" exempted from the signature requirements.  However, it is still unclear where a comic book falls in their definitions.  Is a comic book "entertainment memorabilia"?

This law began as strictly applicable to sports memorabilia, but in the last five years was expanded to cover other signed items that sell for more than $50.

Good ol Kalifornia. I think the Dead Kennedys wrote a song about what would happen there...

So just for s&g’s I'm gonna ask this one… what if you had a book signed several years ago by an artist that is still alive and still does cons. If you bring one of their signed books to a con and get a witness to go to their booth with you where they see the signature and state clearly that they already signed it, how would that be handled?
