  1. I am wondering if I could get some help. ????

    What are all of the key issues in the copper age?I know there is the obvious "ASM #300 "etc. I wanted to get an idea from the experts on the boards.Thanx in advance (worship)

     

  2. No, I dont "got it". Replacing rusty staples is restoration because you are repairing the book. But, if you sprayed the book while it was in mint condition it would allow the book to avoid scrapes, dents and scratches so it could hold more of its value. There are sprays that will not make you book gloss but will put a fine layer of protection on your cover so if repeals more dirt and scratches. I do not understand why it is wrong to protect the value of a book.

    Oh, wait a minute I do know... if high volumes of books were protected that would mean more mint grade and too many mint grades is not good right?

     

    If you dont mind spray away at your comics,because that just makes my comics worth all that much more.I really must thank you. :baiting:

  3. I dis agree with you, CGC allows signing of a book that is adding a composition but it also adds value. A spray is a protactant and not really a part of the book but it also adds value. In order to be labeled restoration you have to restore it to something. IMO a spray is not restoring the book. So, CGC is ok with an artist signing the book but it is not ok to protect your book, because signing brings more value to the book.

     

    I licks to poot Varnish on my books befor sinding them to GCG. Perfekt protactant, perfekt 10.0 from GCG everytime.
