Pics have a lot of glare...

Book wide crease, crease at upper right corner w/color break(?)

If that is a wide crease across the cover it will IMO drop the grade significantly, how does CGC view that?, will a press help?

With the book sitting as is, IMO...

7.5 VERY FINE- (VF-):  Back to Top
Fits the criteria for Very Fine but with an additional defect or small accumulation of defects that detracts from the book's appearance by a perceptible amount.

7.0 FINE/VERY FINE (FN/VF):  Back to Top
An above-average copy that shows minor wear but is still relatively flat and clean with outstanding eye appeal. A small accumulation of minor bindery/printing defects is allowed. Minor cover wear beginning to show, possibly including minor creases. Corners may be blunted. Inks are generally bright with a moderate reduction in reflectivity. Stamped or inked arrival dates may be present. Minor foxing. The slightest spine roll may be present, as well as a possible moderate color break. Staples may show some discoloration. Slight staple tears and a small accumulation of light stress lines may be present. Slight rust migration. Paper is cream to tan. Centerfold is mostly secure. Minor interior tears at the margin may be present.

Yeah as is I agree 7.5-8.0 but if that is a crease it looks pressable and if removed, this would look as good or maybe a tad better than my own 9.0 copy so something to consider....

Yes, i believe that a press would remove that and the dents on the right edge. But unfortunately, where i m from (norway), i dont think i can find someone to do it.
