nikym81 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Hi I'm fairly new to collecting and looking at making a deal on this copy of the flash #139. As you can guess I dont trust myself guesstimating grades so any help grading this would be much appreciated. I'll probably get this pressed before having it graded. Pics attached.

Terrapin Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 5/5.5 pressing won't help the creasing and color loss along the spine and small tears at the edges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adampasz Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I'm far from an expert on pressing, but... It seems like the cover has really nice gloss and ink saturation. I'd be concerned about what effect pressing would have on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
