No shipping
CGC..press and grade 95
Clan..press and grade 130

I'll assume shipping is similar
If I do 3 books thats 105 savings

not sure about the custom lable...still a massive savings


The CGC shipping was FedEx $80 and CBCS/Clan was $46.

I didn't include Pressing.

With the announcement that George may be dying his signature comics are inflating. I see nothing cheap on eBay.

@GAC I got 2 places that can help you out for cheaper. Big country comics operates out of new brunswick and is sending in for the cgc signature event and charging 120 per book. Captcan in ontario is doing the event but with the custom labels and charging 135 plus tax which end up being 150. if you want to send in with big country let me know and i can hook you up with the facebook group for the send in.(canadian prices)

I think i need to pass...already have signed books and signed/graded etc...no need to inflate the xmas bills







10 of the 12 crisis books are CPV and all double signed - most in the 8 to 8.5 range (got the crappy copies signed!)

Sold my signed WW#1 9.8 CBCS when the WW movie flopped - have another potential 9.8 but no need to get it signed? also have a 9.6 TT #44 and a potential 9.? TT#44 news stand

only a few head sketches

Back in the mid 80's I got George Perez to sign my 2 sets of Crisis on Infinite Earths 1-12, but this was on the splash page inside the cover, usually next to his credit. That's because artists/writers didn't want to mess up the beautiful cover art by scribbling their signature all over it. And there was no such thing as a slab.

I feel it would be such a shame to seal away his signatures inside a slab, never to be seen, just to get the signature certified and graded.

Do you think it would be better to use CBCS grading only service (without the slab) along with signature verification? Or better to just keep it raw?

Personally I had a book signed by kirby and 2 other individuals. I have a photo of the signatures and I slabbed the book. No regrets. If I ever want to look at signatures I have pix.... meanwhile the books are far better protected than I could have done with bags and a backing board...

These are some of the sketch covers my son's collection. George drew the Vigilante (lower right) about 5+- years ago at a Con for my son and I when we met him.

So, here are the books I’m sending.

I think NTT is probably worth pressing? It does have like 5 or 6 spine ticks (I bought it new at Clint’s in KC when I was 9). There are a few bends and waves I think might benefit?

The Infinity Gauntlet I bought 3 or 4 years ago at my LCS for $20, as I was mainly a DC guy at the time it was published and only read the trade. It doesn’t have any spine breaking tics, but does have some bends.

Now, these are PC long-term holds for me, not flips. Trying to enjoy my PC now and leave something for my wife.

So, is it worth pressing these books? Or just submit for the signing as is?

@KCBatmanFan

In my opinion, you pay for the pressing for piece of mind. There are no, "what if I had done this?" type questions. Plus if the book ever does leave your possession, say you die and your heirs need to sell, it would be best if the book was highest grade possible to get as much for it as they can. Funeral expenses are crazy high. It cost almost 10k for a middle road casket and service. Trying to recoup a bit from selling valuables helps even if it is just a little bit.

Trying to find an infinity gauntlet 1 on ebay for this and prices are just ridiculous lol. Hoping to find one and get it in...from what I read it was mostly to support his family once he's gone so it's definitely worth it on both sides.

I got my first Perez signature from last year’s CGC signing event but will be sending in another book to help out his family.

Just finished packing mine up over lunch. Went with my initial 2 thoughts (Infinity War 1, NTT 2).

With pressing, Perez label, and USPS fully insured shipping was $239. Wish I could have
done a couple of more, but that’s all I could budget right now.

I just remembered the other 3 comics I sent! lol. Avengers 195 & 196 and New Teen Titans #26 first Terra. My NTT 2 and 44 were already signed & slabbed by him as one UXM with his cover art.

Here’s what I’m sending










I know the teen titans meets the uncanny X-men wasn’t done by him but I’m feeling like it’s kinda of a Stan Lee type comic for him.

Yup..just got the same e-mail
Was lucky enough to meet him a few times over the years - just a great guy who seemed to genuinely care about his fans...not all creators are like that

Surprised it took them that long, think they had already canceled it like a week or two ago due to his bad health.

I haven't gotten an email yet, but I saw an update from his family and was kind of expecting it.
