Newbie here. I commissioned Arthur Suydam to draw me a sketch cover at this years fan fusion in Phoenix. I didn’t have an account then, and would like to get it graded and verified. Is this possible? | ||

Yes, as long as it is signed by the artist. They can't verify a sketch, only the signature. My advice would be to submit it under the ART designation having the signature verified. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Firegoof19 Welcome! Doc Watson’s advice is solid to minimize costs but the ART tier will just verify the signature as legit, no grade will be assigned to the slabbed book. If you want the book graded and sig verified, sub it under the verified signature program.(VSP) |

There's no point in spending extra money for a numerical grade when it's a sketch cover. Of course, it's his book and his money to spend, or waste, as he sees fit. | ||

@Firegoof19 if it’s for resale and has a shot at 9.8 (at least 9.6) then I would grade it. If it has corners messed up or bends / creases and looks 9.4 or lower you may want to do “ART” label with a verification. I’ve done this on books that the artist handled poorly or was just lower grade to start with (but was the only blank cover I had at the time). Post a pic of the piece if you don’t mind as well :-) |
