Hey folks.. i would like some input on a book...i know the scan image isnt the best (ctrl+) for larger...

how bad will the lower left crease get whacked for grade?i have an idea,but want to see the take on it here... the book needs a press,as you can see the same crease back cover bottom right.and thats distributor spray top back cover,not a stain. thoughts? pre/post press grade thought...

One of my favorite FF covers; I think it would get an 8.0 perhaps a 7.5. Beautiful colors though, nothing to be ashamed though!

I don't think you can press out the bottom left FC corner crease, it seems to break color. A press would flatten the book of course but that CB crease would remain. As it is now, I see a weak 7.5, press it and get an 8.0. Have a flower you dirty presser :foryou:

If it was my book I'd probably grade it a 7.5...but I think it possibly could get an 8.0...I can't get over that 9.0 55 that was floating around about a year ago that had the color breaking crease upper right corner...so if you have just one CBC I've seen this occur in books 8.0-9.0, all other aspects/condition being there of course to warrant the grade...

 

Nice copy! :headbang:
