POLL: Do you care if a comic has been pressed?

[Mio]

No. I don't understand why anybody would, either.

[BlowUpTheMoon]

[Dick Pontoon]

You were gone? Hadn't noticed....

Yes I would like to know if a comic has been pressed or not because we don't know the long term effects pressing has on comics.

You do realise a book is pressed and heated when it is printed. IIRC I still see some books for the 1930's in high grade slabs. Did not appear to have too negative of an effect on those books.

Oh I am more then aware of the printing process due to working at two printing graphic companies. Still though pressing is an additional process which is done after the fact in which in some of the tutorials they are using moisture and different heat processes to press your book in which we do not know the long term effects of.

People who seek high grade copies of older books not solely because they are pretty but also because they have a high level of unmanipulated preservation care whether a book has been pressed or not.

Yes.

I used to seek HG copies of books because I attached value to their SP(State of Preservation).

 

I no longer seek HG copies of books because the SP can no longer be determined.

The one thing I find interesting is that before I joined these boards I didn't realize comics where so manipulated.

When I sold my CGC graded bronze books I had left it open and asked people to inquire about pressed books to see what sort of response I would get.

 

Out of about 25 PMs only 1 person asked if the book he was interested in was pressed.

I assume that noone asked because those that care just assumed the books were pressed & pasted right over your thread.
