Lutherbushido82 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Hello all, new user here with a first time post. Signed up for a membership, so I'm looking to get a few books graded, and I figured this would be a good spot to see what's worth sending in. This ff 52 is first up. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comicginger1789 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 I think 4.0 is not out of the question but would be tops. Lots of edge wear, some of the small tears and creases on the leading edge keep it from getting any higher. Lutherbushido82 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theCapraAegagrus Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 3.0 IMO. Lutherbushido82 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lutherbushido82 Posted June 5, 2020 Author Share Posted June 5, 2020 Thanks again, guys. It looks like there's a lot of color breaking on the cover, but would it be a good idea to press this when I send it in for grading? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like there's a lot of color breaking on the cover, but would it be a good idea to press this when I send it in for grading? I think a properly cleaned and pressed book of this age always looks better. There are some white areas and spine ticks that could be improved. However, you might want to be careful with that bottom staple if you press the book. Find out the cost of the CPR first to make sure it’s what you want to spend overall when you add grading and shipping.

It will just present better, if that’s a consideration for the OP. Deadpoolica 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtrias00 Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 3.0....i would press just for presentation reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lutherbushido82 Posted June 6, 2020 Author Share Posted June 6, 2020 Yeah, I'm not too concerned with the actual grade, just wondering how much nicer it could look 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
