Aliens Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I got this signed back in megaton Orlando last year and had a great time experience and though I am glad with how the comic came out But I would of preferred a thinner signature would you say that the signature defects the book or makes it a better worth thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compare it to his signature on the custom label, which is much better. I'm not sure how much the quality of the signature matters for valuation but I imagine some would be put off by this rather sloppy example. At least the placement is decent. Cool book !

ADAMANTIUM Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I don't think that it looks that bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PunisherPunisherPunisher Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Nice book but all Stan is worried about is getting his $$$ for the signature, wouldnt want to get a book signed from him at the end of the day Mercury Man 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grebal Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Not that bad, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revat Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I don't think it would swing the value more than $10 in either direction. I guess if I really wanted to buy this specific comic in low grade with a Stan Sig with a Stan Label I'd probably take 1.5-1.8 with a good looking and equal sig placement over this for the same price. But its a pretty specific comparison to make, and its not like the market is flooded with these, especially the label. to me, the 'Stan Lee' label would turn off more people than the sig.

miraclemet Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I haven't seen a "thin" Stan signature in years... Yours looks good for his current fat sharpie sigs, the bad ones look more like black smudges... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Zipper Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 It's pretty consistent with one I got a few years ago. I wasn't totally thrilled, but it is what it is... I've seen worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I don't think your sig is bad at all it is legebal and that's the important part I mean the first e in lee is a bit blocked out but it is still noticeable and nothing beats a good ol jack Kirby sig cool book Edited September 14, 2017 by Aliens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadleg Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I've seen worse sigs by Stan for sure. There's a thread on here somewhere that has some pretty bad sigs. Like @oakman29 said though, there is so much out there signed by Stan Lee that for me, it's just lost all uniqueness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aliens Posted September 14, 2017 Author Share Posted September 14, 2017 i guess i agree the book is for my private collection not looking to sell it but i see what your talking about though i agree that some day there will be a premium on unsigned books it depends really what book the sig is on according to cgc census there is only 140 signed ASM 3 and over 1400 non signed also stan is 94 and has already been set to make final conventions apperances which means hes not gonna sign a million more items and once hes gone no more can be signed. and though i see what your saying with its just a name in sharpie its not just a name its stan lee "the creator of spider-mans" name.
