Now back to business of the John Romita Jr. Charity Sketch Event.
The event will begin at 12:00 pm on Friday, May 4th at the Hard Rock Cafe on the Las Vegas Strip. It will continue in the same location until the conclusion on Sunday, May 6th at 2 pm. This of course, is assuming that John can last for the 50 continous hours. We ask that anyone who wants, please come by and cheer John on anytime during the 50 hours.
For those of you that will be attending the event, DWC will be providing a CGC CAW at the event during the following hours.
Friday 12 pm - 3 pm, 5 pm - 8 pm, 11 pm - 2 am
Saturday 10 am - 1 pm, 4 pm - 7pm, 10 pm - 1 am
Sunday 10 am - 2 pm
If you have you own CGC authorized CAW than you can come whenever you want to. Please make arrangements with Joe Pierson at CGC regarding having your own CAW.
To get your sketch CGC graded, DWC is charging $100.00 plus return shipping that includes the sketch donation of $50.00, the sketch blank donation of $10.00, the DWC modern tier submission fee of $35.00 and the CGC processing fee of $5.00. If you wish to provide your own blank cover that John approves of, then you can deduct the $10.00 blank cover donation from the total. Return shipping fee depends on what country the book will be shipped to.
If you only wish to get a signature then the fee charged will be $70.00 plus return shipping that includes the signature donation of $20.00, the sketch blank donation of $10.00, the DWC modern tier submission fee of $35.00 and the CGC processing fee of $5.00. If you wish to provide your own book that John approves of, then you can deduct the $10.00 blank cover donation from the total. Return shipping fee depends on what country the book will be shipped to.
For those of you who can not attend, DWC will have a limited number of sketchs available after this event is over for those who can not make it out to Las Vegas. Starting Friday, May 4th every morning of the event, beginning at 8:00 am PST, DWC will make 10 sketch spots available to be purchased in the DWC Webstore. No specific character or CGC grade can be guaranteed. Duplicate orders will only be allowed if spots are left available.
Below is one of the event blank covers available to be purchased at the event and in the DWC webstore after the event is over. The cost will be $10.00.

If I just want to come in to get a signature on one or more of my books with no extras, is it $20 per book? Or, is he going to be there only to do sketches? Thanks.

Sounds good, especially since it is all for a good cause.
