ivrimark Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 My OO copy! Nice flat front cover but a fair amount of waviness at top of back cover. As photos show, this doesn't extend to front cover (or first half of interior pages). No visible water damage staining. So while you're at it, please advise on whether a press would help. Thanks!

LDarkseid1 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 (edited) 4.0-4.5 as is, 5.5-6.0 post c/p Edited July 2, 2022 by LDarkseid1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haljordanfan Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 No brainer on pressing this book, it will benefit GREATLY from one. I think the majority of what I’m seeing will come out if the presser is good. Going to say a 6.0. If you get a get lucky maybe a 6.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 If you never turned the book over, I could buy getting a 7.0-7.5 after C&P. I'd defer to those who had books like this to comment on the efficacy of C&P on the reverse, but I have a hard time seeing it being completely pressed out. My guess is 6.0±0.5. A 4.5ish is probably the right as-is number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bayowolf Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Corners and spine look good though. 5.0 as is..A good press can bump this up substantially I think even to a 7.0/7.5 IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendelbo Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 A C&P will improve the back cover but there is staining and discoloration. C&P for 6.0/6.5. Thanks for posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mmanick Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 I believe this one is at a 6.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Engr62 Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 I would guess 5.5 as is. 6.5 to 7.0 with a cleaning and press. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
