c_mkv Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 So can this be anything other than colour touch/restoration along the inside of the spine? Looks like Marker or pen and I don't have the book in hand only these pics. Thanks in advance for your opinion and advice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicquant Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 The pic is very fuzzy but the colors match up and that’s in the right place for color touch bleed through. So definitely looks like amateur resto to me. We’re you not expecting it to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PovertyRow Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 The top photo indicates amateur marker color touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James J Johnson Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 (edited) Yes. Amateur color touch (that's ink visible inside the spine, soaking through from the front). And it appears to have been trimmed along the top and bottom as well, not just the cover but the whole shebang, cover and pages.
