<p>First... WOW on the Neal Adams commission. Fantastic. I have a Adam's Conan sketch on a comic backing board I picked up cheap many years ago for like $75. Prices are through the roof now on comic art. Glad I bought what I did back in the 90s.</p>
<p>I believe many artists artistically and strategically place their signatures in a way that it complements the art around it. So I believe it is an autograph AND part of the artwork.</p>

<p>If it was a signature in the white margin at the bottom of a comic art page, then it is simply an autograph.</p>
<p>For what it's worth, I believe many Jack Kirby original art pages were ghost signed by his proxy, which in my mind is a huge detraction. </p> Very nice, Doug.

<p>Materials are definitely a concern, and will continue to be. The more historic the item, the more acceptable some form of restoration may be.</p>

<p>I used to keep these autographs in a drawer along with the 1947 ephemera. I had these acrylic frames and put these pieces together with archival products. I hung them on the wall and now I consider them art. They are much more fun on the wall. </p>

<p>Restoration has to be part of autograph collecting because so many mediums are signed on paper or laminate that is deteriorating, just look at some of The Beatles signed lps that have been signed , the laminate is starting to stretch , the cardboard is full of acid and starts to Pitt, autographs start to fade. How many centuries or decades can signed lps or magazines really last without some can of preservation?</p>

<p>I've changed or added different items to my collection these days because so many o f the graphs are so generic, artist sell them online , pro graphers populate the market with cheap stock. </p>
