    What's bull is what he charged to press them. Dry cleaning & Pressing Fees on 2 books at $40 per book:$80.00

    I did a Tomb of Dracula #8 that had 8 covers. That one was a challenge.

    Proper storage with lower levels of humidity and air pollution. Not really as once a book is foxed, it is IN the paper and cannot be dry cleaned. Any methods to remove it will likely result in a conserved or restored book.

    Take it

    Something tells me you already know the answer to your question.
  17. joeypost
    That depends. Some of the reasons it could return is due to the pressers techniques/processes when working on the book. I cant divulge too much info without giving some information away, so i am going to stop there about the actual work on the book. Other factors are storage conditions and relative humidity. If done and stored correctly, the book will stay the same way it comes out of the press.

    Regarding the original question about the ripples or “puckering” of the cover near the spine...it can be corrected. Depending on the amount of glue applied to the spine, each book can exhibit different amounts of puckering. In some extreme cases the paper has been stretched so bad, it can never really go all the way back and remnants like light creases will remain, even after multiple pressings. In the overwhelming majority of the cases, the book will press out nicely if done by someone experienced. If not you can crush the spine, cause the staples to pop through the paper or cause the glue from the spine to migrate further into the book. I hope to post after pictures of the book I used as an example tomorrow. It is in the press now and I will leave it overnight.

    I am assuming you mean these types of ripples. While not an annual, it is a period squarebound book.
