Gman65NJ Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 X-Men 4...one of my favorites. Bought this at a late 70s convention...one of the brighter things I did as a kid. Trust me, you don’t want to know how much I paid. let me know what you think and my usual question on clean/press (which I’ve never done) before I get it graded and slabbed (also never done but about to do a lot it seems). Thank you! The Lions Den, FoggyNelson, Galen130 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1950's war comics Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 (edited) that was a nice purchase back then !! nice X-Men key !! worthy of a press and grade ! should be at least fine+ ... hopefully better !!

The Lions Den Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 (edited) Looks nice, but it appears to have a light subscription crease which partially breaks color...may only score in the VG/FN range because of that.

I don’t see that exactly but it certainly has imperfections. Any thoughts on if clean/press would improve it enough to warrant the cost? Especially if going to get it graded and slabbed.

A press isn't going to get rid of those color breaking flaws, and to me it looks pretty clean already. Personally, I'd leave it as it is, but that's just me. It's a nice mid grade copy...

theCapraAegagrus Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 5.5 IMO. Gman65NJ and The Lions Den 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilskip Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Sub crease brings it down to a 4.0, but it presents a lot better and the page quality is great. The Lions Den 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galen130 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I don't think a press is necessary...may not improve the grade IMO. I'll go 5.5 as well...with an outside chance at 6.0 after clean/press. Nice key...has some value as is. Gman65NJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
