Please Grade This X Men 104 Print-Ink Manufacturing Error?
2 2

4 posts in this topic

Only one picture and sorry for the quality as it is kind of hard to see, but it seems to show some kind of Ink Printing/Manufacturing error. The red ink from The X seems to bleed into the white box with the issue number. Also seems to be a reddish shadow under the MEN in x men. I've never seen this before so was wondering if it is a grade deduction and if so what effect? Or is it considered some sort or printing/manufacturing defect and little or no impact on grade. So this is less about grading this book and more about the effect of this ink bleed. Any help is appreciated.

It's likely to be considered a manufacturing defect. I could find only one 9.8 copy on line that displayed a similar-type bleeding of the red ink (albeit very light and almost imperceptible). I was able to find numerous 9.6's. So this particular defect should have little to no effect on the grade.
