Bird Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 (edited) Here is a Fantastic Four 45 I bought a year or two ago. It is a very good looking book but has devastating color breaking damage to the spine and top. What do you think? I do not see a press improving it, do you? I mean .5 bump perhaps due to the quality of the presser? The picture with the first page and interior front cover, that is not mold or mildew on the staple but the cover piece, the darkness of space but torn and stuck under the staple. Not the chip on the right front side near the lettering Inhumans!" Any opinions on grade please? Edited April 1, 2021 by Bird Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldrover Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I'm thinking 2.5-3.0 range. Between the spine and the other creases and chunks, that seems about right. Bird 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bayowolf Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Hey, I got that book, and it was graded here (3.5) ..my back looks better but your cover is better..so evens out.. 3.5 I don't press will take out all those color breaks on FC.

The Lions Den Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 I was thinking a 3.0 as well. And there's no way I'd press this book... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
