jevlnuts Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 (edited) Hi, I am looking for a more experienced opinion on a book I am considering buying. I have been collecting for years but this may be out of my technical skill. The book is House of Mystery 175, first appearance of Cain. The seller says its 7.5, I dont completely agree or necessarily disagree and I have concerns. There appears to be a small bit of water damage on the back of the book. What does this sort of damage drop the grade by, also is this a good candidate for a clean and press? Additionally it appears that there may be some mold inside the book, again I do not know how this impacts the grade. I have attached pictures and I really appreciate any insight you might have. Thank you. Edited July 18, 2017 by Rdjevning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jevlnuts Posted July 18, 2017 Author Share Posted July 18, 2017 staples do not appear to be rusted from what I can tell. I have not seen this book in person, I have only seen the pictures that are posted here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
