hulk2k20 Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 None of the indentions break color except for the spine ticks that clearly do. There's also some discoloration near his pinky; possibly from damage but I'm at least the 3rd owner of this book. All the interior pages are look great. Thoughts on what this would grade at after a pressing and cleaning from CGC/CSS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masterlogan2000 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Ah, so you were the winner of that auction. IIRC, CGC now grades these with green, qualified labels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpoolica Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 I'll say 7.0 it could be higher, I'm just not sure how much they'll hit it with the issue on the front A press will help with other issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeypost Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 I think it has been pressed already, and very poorly at that. Whoever you send it to would need to be good as they need to undo someone else’s damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The seller said he picked it up from an estate sale and the listing did not that a good press should remove most of those defects. I've used CFP Comics in the past and was pretty happy with their work. Any others that you recommend? Edited November 19, 2020 by hulk2k20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnybooks Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I think 7.0 is fair after it goes through the revival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hulk2k20 Posted November 20, 2020 Author Share Posted November 20, 2020 I guess we'll find out "soon". It's on its way to CFP for pressing and then off to CGC. I'll update the thread once it comes back with the final grade. onlyweaknesskryptonite 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The desirability in this book is in its rarity and not the grade itself. Unless you just prefer your books entombed, I'm not sure if there's any added value here on this particular copy.
