That is a beautiful copy. With a good clean and press, I would say 8.5 to 9.0. The only possible issue that I see is the light foxing coming through on the upper right corner of the back cover. Really nice book though. Congrats.

8.5±0.5. The stress marks on the spine and there are tiny defects around the top corners will be the tipping points. I think these will be treated less harshly b/c the book is almost 55 years old. I have one, great colors but it has a 1/2-3/4" tear in the cover, so this one wins by a mile. Great looking and one of the better covers in the late silver age Hulks.

Thank you!

A solid 8.5 due primarily to the color breaking spine stresses. Possibly a 9.0 on a good day. Unless there are dents not visible in the photos, a C&P will not raise the technical grade. The light dirt on BC is acceptable at this grade.  I wouldn't waste my time or money on pressing it.
