TappanZee Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Hi, new here so I hope I'm doing this right. The book is intact and in decent shape except it's sort of folded along its spine (not sure what the term is for that). Also, would this be a candidate for pressing, or would that exacerbate the folding problem? Thanks! Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 That is either a misalignment or improper long term storage. An expert press might help that if it’s not a production issue. Can’t give a decent grade estimate...haven’t seen this before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TappanZee Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 Thanks for the feedback. Would pressing make a significant difference to the grade, given the fold along the spine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ride the Tiger Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 It may make some difference but this book probably isn't a good candidate for pressing. You would be better off IMO using your funds to just buy a better copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
