KCOComics Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 This is an interesting one and I'll be curious to see what others think. My initial thought is a 4.0 But that big crease down the middle seems to go right through the book. Perhaps a subscription crease? (I'm not sure what years subscriptions services existed?) But at least it was folded in half and every page is impacted. So, I'll call it a 3.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddy2 Posted October 21, 2020 Author Share Posted October 21, 2020 @KCOComics Thanks. Do you think a press might help? I have never really had books pressed but curious about if that may be worth considering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCOComics Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 IMO a press would help some. At least with the back cover and flattening out the bent pages. The color breaking crease on the FC won't improve (just flatten) and some other issues would keep it in that VG range. buddy2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theCapraAegagrus Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 3.0 IMO. buddy2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Baird Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I'd go with 4.0, with the potential for a bump with a press. This one is a little tougher than many. I could see anything from a 3.5 - 4.5 depending on the grader, but that subscription crease keeps it at 4.0 for me. buddy2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 4.0...4.5 after clean/press. buddy2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim M Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Tree point five to 4.0, and a press would probably solidify the latter or if you are lucky a 4.5. buddy2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
