✍️ Autograph Authentication Crown Verified
This card carries a blue ink autograph from artist Mark Pingitore, signed by hand along the left side of the artwork, over the Cheap Chun character and the "Move List" book. The signature is quick and flowing, with a tall looping start and a long, sweeping finish, and the ink varies in tone along the lines the way a real pen signature does. Crown Grading compared it with known Mark Pingitore signatures, including others from the 2021 Nintendopes Artist Auto release, and our staff reviewed and approved it, so Crown Grading authenticates this autograph.

Cheap Chun presents a character study rendered in Mark Pingitore's distinctive style, blending nostalgic gaming aesthetics with contemporary art sensibilities. The hand-signed nature of this piece adds personal connection for collectors drawn to direct artist collaborations, making each copy a tangible link between fan and creator.
