One of those annoying newbies here. Question - I've been looking at comics on ebay and a lot of the comics for sale that have been CGC graded will also state that the comic is "unpressed". Is this just a way to say it's in even better condition than a similarly graded book that may have been pressed? And if CGC does press your book before grading, is the fact that it was pressed stated on the slab?

Thanks, I was wondering about those. They are sort of raised up, making me think maybe I could remove them safely. Don't want to damage the book though.

Sorry I don't have more pics, took these before I knew I should provide more. Thanks guys! Trying to get an idea of what condition looks like at different grades.

Jack Kirby and Mike Royer were at the comic book store when my husband went to get this issue. The signatures are authentic but there's no proof.

Thanks. I'm going to work on better pictures next time. Learning as I go :).

Thanks everyone!

Hello everyone. I'm new to the boards and to comics. I've recently inherited an extensive comic book collection, probably thousands of them. They've all been stored bagged and boarded in comic book boxes since the 80's. I'm here to learn as I sort through them and decide which ones (if any) are worth sending to CGC for grading. Thanks for being so welcoming!

First post, thank you for any polite suggestions if I'm not doing this correctly. I saw the suggestion to use a dark background but had already taken the pics so I apologize in advance for that. This looks like it's in really great crisp condition to my untrained eye. I'm posting here to help me decide if it's worth sending to CGC for grading.
