MrRoboto Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Press for 9.2+ imo BigLeagueCHEW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendelbo Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 9.2 therabouts. Thanks for posting and welcome to the boards. BigLeagueCHEW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 9.2±0.2. Maybe some corner rounding, but the back is nice. Lots of copies I've seen have color breaking stress lines up and down the back spine. BigLeagueCHEW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance If both sides are clean, no spine ticks (that break color), that bottom spine corner isn't blunted, the top center rear shot doesn't have an indent, this is probably a 9.6 to 9.8 copy. Very hard to get 9.8. If it has minor defects that can be pressed out, it's worth a shot. Edited October 16, 2022 by BigLeagueCHEW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 I think a press will help a bit. 9.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
