Glassman10 Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) nice book. What's that "X" on the "R" in silver? Otherwise, clean with minor corners. 6.0. Edited January 30, 2021 by Glassman10 reconsidered. Slyde 1

Slyde Posted May 5, 2022 Author Posted May 5, 2022 Giving this one a bump, just in case anyone else wants to take a shot. It should be back from CGC next week, and I'll post the results then.
grendelbo Posted May 5, 2022 Posted May 5, 2022 I assume it's going to be C&P and if CCS takes care of it I'm thinking 7.0. Definitely no worse than 6.5. Thanks for the second chance. I was lurking but not yet posting when this rolled around the first time.
ROBTOTHEC Posted May 5, 2022 Posted May 5, 2022 That's too nice of a book to grade below a Fine IMHO. I'm at 6.5!

Yes, I cleaned up the back a bit and pressed it myself, and it turned out pretty good. grendelbo 1
JRibble Posted May 5, 2022 Posted May 5, 2022 Looks good! One of my favorite covers of all time and an issue I'd like to get some time. Great job on pressing. I have a stack of square bounds that I will tackle someday once I figure out how to keep the spine from crushing. 6.0 at least on this one.

The pics here are actually pre-pressing. I think next time I will take another round of photos. There are a couple of techniques for square bounds. I use two thick metal plates for my pressing, and I keep the spine just outside the edge of the two plates. I use lower temp as well so the glue doesn't melt. grendelbo 1
