No way dude. It's trimmed AND pressed.

yup, trimmed, aged to fool the buyer and a clear example of pressing gone wrong. Also it's a rare "Marvel Whitman" variant

Probably trimmed. It's got about 1/4" less on the right edge than my copy, and it doesn't look like a miswrap, as there isn't that much back cover showing on the front.

That's not a reliable way to tell if a book has been trimmed. In fact, trying to divine whether or not a book has been trimmed, from a scan, is not recommended at all.

Does your copy miswrap to the back at all?

 

 

 

"Probably trimmed"?

I have to agree with beyonder on this one guys. I have the spider-man run from 130 to completion and many of mine ranging from 160 through 190 have this type of miscut. and I know they aren't trimmed and pressed. Because I used to trim and press for some customers of mine and these don't look like press jobs

I was joking about it being trimmed and pressed.

If you look reeeeeeal hard you can actually see the waves of paranoia radiating out from the FF 3 thread.

Care to elaborate on that last part.
