One more question, with a press could this book bump from a 1.0 to a 1.5?

 

not likely, with super low grade books pressing doesnt do much good (though frequent pressers feel free to correct me) because the culmination of all of the non-pressable defects keep the book so low grade...

 

unpressable defects in this book

-tons of major color breaking creases

-lots of color loss on the bottom of the cover (looks like some sort of long term heat/stacking pull, like the book above it in the stack has some OAAW83 cover chips on its back now)

-tape on spine length

-water damage/staining

 

 

it looks like it already lays pretty flat so I'd avoid a press. Dont know the structural state of the book, and the cover's already detached/reattached, so why chance a press when it wont improve the general condition of the book?

 

on the upside the defects are all around the edges so you at least have a nice looking picture of the Sarge right there in the middle!
