unagi Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Any thoughts on where this would land with a clean and press? Thanks! Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvelmaniac Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 I cannot answer your question on a clean and press. Slightly blunted corners, slight edge wear, a couple of small spine ticks, slightly fanned pages. 9.0 VERY FINE/NEAR MINT (VF/NM): Back to TopNearly perfect with outstanding eye appeal. A limited number of bindery/printing defects are allowed. Cover is almost flat with almost imperceptible wear. Inks are bright with slightly diminished reflectivity. An 1/8" bend is allowed if color is not broken. Corners are cut square and sharp with ever-so-slight blunting permitted but no creases. Several lightly penciled, stamped or inked arrival dates are acceptable. Very minor foxing. Spine is tight and flat. Staples may show some discoloration. Only the slightest staple tears are allowed. A very minor accumulation of stress lines may be present if they are nearly imperceptible. Paper is off-white to cream and supple. Very minor interior tears may be present.

MrRoboto Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 8.5-9.0 as is. Post C&P probably 9.2 or better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendelbo Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 8.5 after the C&P. Could be a little higher too. Thanks for sharing. Great cover and issue. Februus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
