Here is my 3rd and last for the day. Thank you everyone for looking. Any tips on photos or anything, please let me know for the future. Wish I knew why my scans can't be accepted by the website.

I agree with the 8.0, as to your scans, are you sure they are being saved as jpegs? I know when I first started scanning, mine were of the wrong "type" it does tell you what type of saved files can be entered. Hope this helps.

Yes, I saved them as jpeg, so I'm not quite sure. I will have to try some other file types. Thanks!

8.0 IMO.

Would a clean and press increase everyone's grades on this possibly? I really want to start learning how to grade, it just seems like a very intimidating art. Can some of the defects be pointed out by you guys and how many points you guys think they drop things per defect? With the book in hand, and understanding some of those defects might help me get a bit of a firmer grasp.

I have been collecting since I was a child, but took 25 or so years off from the hobby when my kids were born, up until their college etc.. I started back into it slow, but now i am fully hooked back in. Slowly inventorying my collection and surfing ebay. 

And does CCS clean AND press? Or just press? 

 

Thanks for the grades everyone!

If non-restorative cleaning methods can remove the foxing - then yes. I doubt that a press will increase its appearance.

Yeah, it would be much more beautiful white! I'm kinda stoked about this book. I really like it. Yeah, I mean it could be better, but sometimes ya just gotta roll with it and be happy with what you have in your hands.

I think it's a really nice presenting copy. I would love to have it.

That said, I think it's 8.5.

The books just came back from CGC. I have a couple of threads I'll attach books to today. Thank you everybody for offering up grades. It took me a little while to get them submitted. This one went in for a clean/press as well. But unfortunately didn't come back as nice as I hoped. Still a beautiful book however. It came back as a 6.0.

On the back, almost impossible to see after the cleaning along the bottom is some almost imperceptible staining. But on the back, there is as some a large patch that they call scratching, but I think it looks like somebody had a piece of paper on top and were trying to get a pen to work by scribbling on the paper, which dented the back. I though that would come out with the press, but I guess not. There are no color breaks with that, just impressions on the back cover. Tried to get a pic, but I can't get the lighting right. 

On the front, mentions staining on the bottom front, but I can't seem to see it. But overall, it is still a beautiful book!
