kcm54 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 (edited) I look and I look and I see maybe some blunting on the LHS, plus 2 NCB creases coming in from the spine, one across the Thing's feet in the title box, and one ending at Mr F's mouth. I have no experience with pressing, but it seems like getting rid of those creases would be a good thing. Maybe cleaning, too. At 9.0-9.4 they say it's worth $100 and 9.6 is maybe 4 times that. Or am I just dreaming that it's anything like that? Edited October 31, 2019 by kcm54 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

csaag Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 9.4 or 9.6, or 8.0 for that matter, depend on a lot more than what you posted. You'll need some pics/scans of the front/back cover to get opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetuniaGrimm Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 (edited) Based on what I'm seeing now that's a 10.0 for sure, it's solid white, without a mark on it, perfect! No press needed (Kidding, posts some pics and I'll tell you what I think) Edited October 30, 2019 by PetuniaGrimm Print was super tiny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcm54 Posted October 31, 2019 Author Share Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) I could have sworn I posted the images. But whatever. They're there now. That line on the lower right was a hair on the scanner. The real question is: Does pressing usually get rid of NCB creases? Is there a list of pressable defects somewhere?

comicginger1789 Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 It can help with non colour breaking marks sure. The top edge of that back cover...is it dirtied or slightly tanned? As is the books seems 9.0-9.2 at least for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Ciraulo Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 I usually press everything before submitting it -- I feel like you're leaving money on the table if you don't. As for this book, it looks like a 9.4, so I guess it's not out of the realm of possibility.
