Empir3 Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 would a press help with the rub or is that chipping on the cover ? What would it grade as? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Ries Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Pressing does not restore color. If only. 6.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilskip Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 4.5 to 5.0. And that is color loss and nothing is going to help it. #10 may be my favorite Daredevil cover, followed closely by 6 & 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only. 6.5 I had it exactly the same as you, until I saw the back cover image and the top left area water stain was revealed. With that, 4.5 to 5.5, dependent upon how that area presents visually from varied rakes in hand and how many pages, if any, it extends through..

theCapraAegagrus Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 5.5 IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, it looks like a bend that goes through the entire book. It can be seen on the front cover and the first page as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galen130 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 A clean/press may help a bit with the BC spine soiling & non-color breaking creases, but it won't hide the obvious (says Captain Obvious). Still a nice key to have. 5.0...maybe a 5.5 with clean/press. IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
