    Imho with a clean and press the book would go up at least 2 full grades if not more. But would need to see shots of the interior covers - all black covers are notorious for some type of ct, amateur and pro.  And, even more, need to know what's up with the partial overhang on the top right edge of the fc. That is very very unusual, needs to be explained.

    @Dr. Love I included some additional shots of the interior covers.   I don't see any aspects of CT but I am by no means an expert.

    Thanks,   I will have to dig up the book again (hopefully I haven't sent out for grading) to take additional photos may take a day or two.

    Hi: A few general things you might consider.

    1.  I would make sure I trusted the presser.

    2.  Might look at

    3.  Insurance is important if you want to reduce the risk but truly understand what is needed (Pictures, proof of value, etc.)  in the event you had to do a claim before you actually purchase.

    4.  Ensure the presser accepts responsibility in case books are lost, stolen, etc. while in their possession until CGC gets them.

    5.  Ensure Signature Confirmation but know there has been some changes due to Covid.
