Bought this from a board member and glad to have it!

Considering a press and clean with a CGC slab.

What do you think the grade is, and what do you think it could go to with a press and dry clean?

Even if the press would not raise the grade very much, I think it would present much better.

Looking to keep this for my personal collection, not a flip.

Thanks,

Ed

2.0-2.5.  Maybe can get up to a 3.0-3.5 if the wrinkles are pressed out, but I'm not really sure.

You also might want to check the centerfold to see if those are the original staples.  They look too clean in relation to the book.

2.5  tops for me, and only because there are no large pieces missing. My advice is do not press that book. There is no reason to. Way too many color breaking creases and paper fracturing and crinkles on the F.C. Even if you press it so what, the creases are still going to be there just a bit less visible. Besides that book is well read and worn, heat is not going to do that paper any good at this point. And like a previous poster said those staples look to good for a book that age. Put it in a mylite 2 and enjoy it.
