Keys_Collector Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 3 hours ago, Sweet Lou 14 said: The scans for these kinds of books are so convincing -- unless of course you want to say that they're unconvincing by being simply too good to be true. I can't even pick out color touch in most scans ... and whenever I look at a restored book with notes saying that whole pieces have been added, I struggle to see where the "seams" are. I would love to know (or better yet, see) what condition this apparent 9.8 would have been in before the restoration. Can anyone point me to photos or a video detailing the process? I'm so curious to see how this is done. I think its just a matter of amazing resto work. There's amateur level restoration and then there's high level professional work like that Hulk 1.
