RobMadoo Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Hi, I was wondering if anyone has had a book signed at convention with cgc witness and then submitted for pressing and grading. Does the pressing affect the signature at all? Will using a silver or gold sharpie markers vs black make a difference in how the sig is affected? Heading out tomorrow and any feedback would be much appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeypost Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 It pressed correctly, the process should have no impact on sharpie signatures. Stay away from white and pastel colored paint pens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brooklynmet Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Can pressing help this? Is it worth it? I was hoping for a 2.0. Your thoughts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronnieramone Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Dry cleaning might help some of the stains on the back on that Hulk 180, but probably nothing will get rid of the writing. I doubt you would bump the grade up on that, but it sure would look a lot nicer. I'd do it for that reason alone, because the wrinkles reflect light in so many ways it is hard to appreciate the book the way it is. On a key like that (which I do not yet own myself) I would say it is worth the expense, personally. I'd lower your expectations on the grade, though. That might make a 1.8 at best from the look of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
