mrbinkelstein 28 posts Posted October 1, 2019 Gorgeous copy! Get it dry cleaned and pressed to make your investment go further. RC is grimy and you have some foxing on the bottom edge of FC. I'm guessing: Pre-pressing and drycleaning: 7.5 Post-pressing and drycleaning: 9.0 2 Spider-Guy and kav reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kav 51,171 posts Posted October 1, 2019 7.5. Too much staining for 8.0 IMO 2 Spider-Guy and PeterPark reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Motor City Rob 139 posts Posted October 3, 2019 I'm going with 7.0 as is. Clean and press might get it to 8.0. A few "fixable" areas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Old_Man_Adam 588 posts Posted October 3, 2019 8.5 -9.2 with cleaning IMO ...on a somewhat unrelated topic , I gotta say ASM 119-129 might be my favorite 10 issue cover run in the series ... congrats! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dino-Mutt 441 posts Posted October 3, 2019 Very nice book! I was at the 7.5, I can't see why a clean and press couldn't make it hit an 8.5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CCComics 466 posts Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) I'm at 7.0 like it is....press/clean would definitely help,but can't see it going above 8.0 with the tear at the top staple and the foxing. Still, a beauty of a book with nice colors. Edited October 4, 2019 by CCComics Spelling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PeterPark 3,697 posts Posted October 5, 2019 I see a lot of little things going on. If I was you, I'd be happy with anything 7.0 and up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
