USCMitch Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) Greetings all- I'm considering a sale of my Wolverine LS issues and I'm struggling with pinning down a grade on this issue. I have an idea but low confidence. It has some obvious flaws, but also some very nice elements. Scans below. More available on request. Thanks in advance.

In hand, I’m not seeing much if any. The backcover stain is ink transfer so it is what it is. The spine ticks on the front are flattened but break color so not a whole lot there either. What am I not seeing? And thanks for the feedback! Edited May 19, 2021 by USCMitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s possible that a proper press can help the slight misalignment. It doesn’t look like a miswrap to me, but I’m no expert. It might be fine the way it is. 🤙 Edited May 19, 2021 by Galen130 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The staples positions give it away. Now to decide if I want to try and fix it... Edited May 19, 2021 by USCMitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
