Hi,

I have a few comics in similar condition, so I would appreciate some advice before encapsulating in a CGC slab. I’m considering sending some of these to be pressed/cleaned not necessarily to improve the grade, but I would like them to present as well as possible. However, I am concerned about the books being damaged from pressing. Thank you for considering!

Moderate edge wear w/tears, numerous color breaking creases, moderate spine stress w/color breaks, discolored staples, slight spine roll/fanned pages, foxing on front cover, creasing on rear cover, moderate foxing/staining on rear cover.

IMO...

4.0 VERY GOOD (VG):  Back to Top
The average used comic book. Cover shows moderate to significant wear, and may be loose but not completely detached. Cover reflectivity is low. Can have moderate creases or dimples. Corners may be blunted. Store stamps, name stamps, arrival dates, initials, etc. have no effect on this grade. Some discoloration, fading, foxing, and even minor soiling is allowed. As much as a 1/4" triangle can be missing out of the corner or edge; a missing 1/8" square is also acceptable. Only minor unobtrusive tape and other amateur repair allowed on otherwise high grade copies. Moderate spine roll may be present and/or a 1" spine split. Staples may be discolored. Minor to moderate staple tears and stress lines may be present, as well as some rust migration. Paper is brown but not brittle. Minor to moderate interior tears may be present. Centerfold may be loose or detached at one staple.

3.5, maybe a grade higher if grime comes off with C/P

3.5 for me. As for pressing/cleaning, I don't think pressing would accomplish much in the way of a grade bump, but cleaning would definitely improve the look of the back cover.
