Awesome!  Thanks for the example!!

Sadly it is not a newsstand edition.  However, I've been finding a lot of value in reading these old books to my 5 and 7 year olds.

Yes, pressing would help,  though those pen indents look deep and I doubt they can be fully removed. 

Yes,  it will bring the grade down. 

 

My 2 cents,  if you think about comic book collecting at its core, having these books pulled and you enjoying them every week has a value to it, at least to you. 

So if your eager to sell and you have stuff of value,  then pressing and grading may be worth the investment. But if this is for your personal collection, I wouldn't touch them. Just bags, boards and enjoy them. 

 

Thank you for answering the noob question especially since it's not in the noob topic.  Not only am I new to CGC, but I'm new to message boards  

Hi all, completely new here.  Looking to submit some of my books from the 90s, and just came across a mind boggling error from the store my mother used to pick then up from.  The store would hold issues and give a 10 % discount.  Apparently they wrote my last name and 10% on tape with a ballpoint pen and now that I'm examining, LEFT AN IMPRESSION ON THE BOOK(s) (two so far)!

Is this something that "pressing" would help with?  Is this something that would take a 9 point something and knock it down to 8 or lower?  Make it not worth grading/encapsulating?
