What is going on here? 2 2

[XxSpideyxX]

I recently won this comic from an auction and framed it in my favorite ‘museum’ frame that protects from UV light.  However, when viewed at an angle, I noticed massive distortion to the plastic sleeve holding the comic.

What is happening here?  What causes this?  I presume CGC will redo if I pay to ‘reholder’ it? 

I hope this doesn’t happen to more of my books!

Thanks!

I don't *know* at all, but that looks like a heat problem to me... I don't have the setup that you do, but I feel like I've seen similar "rolls" in some of the older holders.  I just always assumed it was a result of them sitting in a car or something. :-/

That makes sense, and I wouldn't "know" either

I was hesitant to answer for that reason too, but I would at least second the notion that its probably not the book and the cause would be heat....

I’ve seen similar things to boarded and bagged books where the plastic gets warped or wrinkled over time.  Maybe it’s inevitable with all plastics?

Regardless, I presume CGC will fix this as part of a ‘reholder’ service?

Yes they would, it's a payable service.

I welcome you to try emailing bcmcmanus@cgccomics.com

But I'll go on record that they may not do it for "free" due to cause could be improper storage or some such but

It's not up to me, I just wanted to give fair warning eek 

but it's worth a shot idk

I was wondering where the Hel you've been.

Some of my older label CGC books have a slight ripple like that.  Just send it in for a $15 reholder.  These cases and plastic sleeves aren't meant to stay in perfect condition for our lives.  I don't remember what exact number it is but I think CGC even recommends replacing the case every 7 years...don't quote me on that.  It may be a marketing ploy but I can see the reality of degradation over time especially with the wide range of customers in different temperatures and humidity.

Right - they are Pacific Razor Clams - Avi is probably visualizing Atlantic Razor Clams

Yup, those are the ones I know. Be careful where you walk of they'll slice your foot open

My comic does look like waves of water, so this is all on topic.
