I think a press could do some good, there looks to be something going on , on the cover by the spine. Anyone in the know would get it graded / pressed, prior to the sale. My assumption is that (without looking up the exact numbers) the gentleman selling it for his client looked into getting it graded, saw the cost (5k + press?) and decided against it... I would think , for maximum exposure/ sale price he would speak to heritage/comiclink/comicconnect etc and let them get it graded , pressed advertised and sold.
