PGM APC 8 0

Just got this from a local con, thinking of pressing and grade.

So great colors but some foxing (cover/firstpage/back cover) and paper wear/damage right top corner, rippling right side corner maybe removable.  

A,) What do you think as is grade?

B.) and after press?

My guess is this maxes out around 4.5/5.0. It's the spots at the top of both covers that set the level. I don't think pressing will improve the grade or appearance. I wouldn't risk pressing a book this old under the circumstances, since the potential to cause damage outweighs any chance of a bump.

Nice book. I’m at 3.5 and maybe a little better (4.0?) with a press depending on how they grade the upper right corner.
