Is it because of that spot on the bottom of spine on cover ? Will a clean take that out ? There are some stress lines on the spines front cover but they don't even appear to be tics ....if there is a difference.....they don't really brake color from what I can tell. Is there some warping on the top of back cover ? The book looks amazing doesn't it ? I don't know what that spot is so I'm not sure how to grade it but I'd like to say 8.5 I am not sure what the spot is either. There i was hoping that some of the dirt might be removed.

grendelbo Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Looks like ink from the picture. 7.5 after after a C&P. Thanks for sharing. Odda 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Februus Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Guys take another look at this if you would .. I think I’m seeing a very light diagonal crease that does break color along the bottom 3rd of the book the line goes through hulks knuckle .. let me know if you can see this. He didn’t give us a close up of this grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zegeroth Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 That is a crease on the knuckle but very fine. Maybe 6.5 from me. This book has already been C&P and you will do nothing to improve it. that ink on the spine scares me. Could it be color touched also?

I don’t think this is ink though. I don’t think this book has been C&P yet due to some pressable defects on the cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverage12c Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 That odd stain is so small, yet so distracting on an otherwise nice, clean spine. Almost looks like it was singed a bit? I assume it's visible from the inside of the front cover, too? I don't think any amount of cleaning is going to eliminate that. But, a press will take care of a few creases. I'm going to say 7.5 after a press, with no real need for a cleaning. Thanks for sharing! Odda 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s weird, the stain is not visible on the interior of the cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LowGradeBronze Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 If ever a key comic deserved to avoid the risks inherent in the C&P process this is it. This is a gorgeous original survivor that looks to me like a 7.0 Remember. they are only original once! Worth pondering before you allow heat moisture and pressure anywhere near that sweet book.
