Crashco Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 (edited) I know it’s pretty rough but I’m hoping that a clean and press might make a difference. Any chance of removing the ink from the cover? Edited May 28, 2021 by Crashco Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 The ink might fade under a good clean, but won’t be removed. Is that large, ink breaking crease at the spine front an actual tear?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theCapraAegagrus Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 3.5 as-is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crashco Posted March 10, 2021 Author Share Posted March 10, 2021 I don’t think it’s a tear but I took a picture of the inside of the cover for you to look at. Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Okay, thanks. Yeah, I agree with AoD. My first thought was a 3.5. Clean/press can't hurt though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuscemasAvengers Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I'm at a 3.0 right now, but it looks as if the book will improve with a clean and press. Ink removed? Not likely. Funnybooks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbone911t Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Book is quite dirty. I think with a clean and press by the right person you're 4.0-4.5. mysterymachine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Thurgood Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Yes with a clean it's easily 4 imho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crashco Posted March 11, 2021 Author Share Posted March 11, 2021 Yeah, it’s amazingly dirty. I will be getting it cleaned and pressed locally very soon. I will upload the after pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crashco Posted March 11, 2021 Author Share Posted March 11, 2021 I bought it for $10 in 1988 so at least it hasn’t been restored! mysterymachine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
