Jasten Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Heading to NYCC and I managed to snag a preorder of the artifact book by John Byrne that supposedly gives me access to having five other items signed (non cgc ><). Im a huge x-men fan and i have a ton of candidates. The questions is, which copies do I sacrifice to the unverified gods. Do I opt for more mid grade books I own or go for my best stuff (which honestly is still likely 9.0-9.2 at best). I could also get him to sign on first page, not as cool but doesn't keep me from being able to sig series or grade later, but of course then the sig can never be seen sadly. Thoughts?

revat Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 Near mint but not ultra high grade stuff keys if possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggovel Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 I ordered it as well. I’m leaning towards having one book signed by Claremont (witnessed) and Byrne (unwitnessed) and submitting for the yellow label with green banner. The other books that Byrne signs I’ll either keep in my collection unslabbed, or submit to CBCS for their red signature verified label.

Jasten Posted October 3, 2019 Author Share Posted October 3, 2019 I read your blog / plan and mine is very similar. I have five books and two of them i plan to get signed then drop off for Claremont and sig series. I window boarded everything for time and convenience, I hope he is ok with this!

Jasten Posted October 3, 2019 Author Share Posted October 3, 2019 Unstoppable, did you do this today? If so, what were the lines like for Byrne? I feel so uninformed as to how to schedule this into my day tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasten Posted October 5, 2019 Author Share Posted October 5, 2019 This was sadly a non starter as he was sick and couldn't make it to con. Blew up my plans big time sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
