Nothing at all to do with dry cleaned and pressing as they are 2 completely different copies. 

Probably a lot more to do with CGC's inconsistency in grading as the nicer and cleaner looking CGC 3.0 graded copy that is in CC's current auction was graded back in August of 2016.  Clearly an extremely unforgiving time for having your GA books graded as CGC was seemingly in a grading hissy fit for some apparent reason.  Just take a look at the equally visually appealing CGC 3.0 copy of Detective 38 in the current CC auction that also appears to have been graded extremely tightly back in July of 2016.  Or to the beautiful looking CGC 3.5 graded copy of Batman 1 that was graded back in June of 2016 and just auctioned off in last week's Heritage auction:

Now compare that CGC 3.5 graded copy of Batman 1 to the unpressed copy of Detective 29 which was also given the exact same 3.5 grade:

Doesn't take a rocket scientist or even a comic book expert to easily tell which copy looks nicer from a visual cover appearance point of view since we do not have the Graders' Notes handy.   

That difference Speaks for itself.

deeply worrying. Third party grading at its worst.

What it go fer? The ff1 9.0 ?

Jon has been an active contributor to the boards for a long time. Wonder why he hasn't chimed in

Perhaps because Berk  cashing out is a Royal knee in the nuts to the other "Big"  collections (verzyl Anderson etc) ?

I was just editing my post when your reply showed up. I felt bad to do that since your luck on Action 1 has been bad. Have a great night Hudson and when I get a copy of Action  I help you look for yours.

Aint nobody on here gonna get no action 1

You can't unclean the cover, so I don't think the resto can be removed on this one.
