waver99 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Hi all, would be grateful for some idea on what this would grade. Has a slight nick above Thor's knee, going through to the first page, sadly. Also a date stamp. Not sure if pressing, cleaning, would help it present nicer, if anything. Cheers.

theCapraAegagrus Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 7.0 IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicginger1789 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 I was thinking 6.5 but a 7.0 is not outta the question. Lovely stamp, sad about the small cover dent/ding/hole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhialtoTheMarvellous Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 The book overall looks really nice. The upper corner might be helped by a press just for appearance, ie to flatten it out, but with the color breaks it isn't going to really help the value. The date stamp is not really a big deal and a lot of people consider it part of the history of the book. You don't want to remove it as I'm fairly certain that any detection of such a removal would result in a restored grade. The spine looks amazingly good in terms of positioning for a square bound book. You've got all the lettering lined up properly. Yeah, edge wear at the top and bottom, that problem corner and the hole bump it down a bit, but it's still really nice. 6.5-7.0, agree with the other guys.

Juventus FC Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Gorgeous book, l'll go for a 7.0-7.5 max. The stamp is a "pence stamp" (a copy from the UK). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
