csaag Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 The Flash got me started collecting. While this has defects pressing wouldn't help, my inexperienced eye thinks it has some others that it could. Do you think it could help the appearance or does the book look too fragile?

Bomber-Bob Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 The big problem for this book is the bottom staple is detached. I'm thinking about a 3.5 to 4.0 range. While a press may make some improvement, especially on the Back cover, I think it may be a minimal improvement in the grade. Sorry. Still a cool book !

theCapraAegagrus Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 4.0 IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvelmaniac Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I agree on the VG 4.0. The book is not that valuable to be concerned about a press. Mine is a Raw VG/FN 5.0 and the average selling price on eBay in 2018 for Superman 199 VG/FN 5.0 was $70.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
