There's ample opportunity for color touch on this cover and I don't see any evidence for it. If there's no bleed through to the inside front cover then don't worry about it.

I had the same thought

I was thinking the same thing.....some close ups of the front spine and any other area's of concern would be nice......does anybody else see any potential problems for a purple label ?

there is no ink bleeding through the cover,  also nothing that I can see under a normal light.

 R U really gonna leave it like that ?

not going to tell the extended version, but here we go.
So after few hours checking facebook , looking for some books at groups, I found this guy who was looking for 6k. After a little chat, I agreed to help him selling some SA books he had, in compensation he sold me this book at 3.5k , I took a fly to his place, paid for the book, and after few days, the dude just blocked me or deleted his profile IDK,  imagine my confusion after all this, getting such a grail for a fine price and him blocking me with no reason at all

2.5 -- SO very cool to see this book unslabbed. Is there a story behind how you got it? I would definitely get a professional's opinion on if pressing and cleaning would do well, and I don't know if I'd trust whoever does the pressing at CGC to do it anyway.

extra for you.
Actually there's a little story, but I'm not sure I should tell, never know who can be reading, but ended up buying the book for 3.5k after a very bizarre negotiation 

now my other concern, is if it has any colour touch... maybe send it to the profesional, even is not for a press but he could check for resto?

 I would think because of the condition of the book that a press and clean might be a dangerous thing to do.....but I'm not sure.

yes, and I don't know if there's a real benefit on this book

2.5   the cover looks pretty good so I think that helps a lot.

P.S.  Get this thing slabbed.   and then tell us what grade you got.

that's the idea

Challenging to grade. So many pros and cons. I’ll go with 3.0 C/OW. This is what this PGM section is about. Cool book

press&clean or pass?

Thinking to sending this to grade, could you spare a grade ?

It is a 8.0, and after everybody said 7.0, maybe I should keep it in the same case 😂

Hi, I’m thinking to rehold some of my oldcase CGC, and one of them is this Hulk181. 
The thing is grader notes is giving me hope to get a bump with a clean&press , and I would like to know your thoughts. What grade do you think this book is, and could be.

Thanks in advance.
