jeranimal Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 (edited) 4/27 See new pics after pressing! ======================================================= Thanks in advance for the grades and opinions. I'm trying to decide what to do with this copy. The front looks amazing but it masks the issues on the back. Front: minor non-color breaking creases on top right corner distributors ink on spine below Punisher's arm bindery tears at staples distributors ink bottom left corner Back: moisture damage entire top of book wrinkled top right corner foxing along spine distributors ink bottom Interior: some minor moisture damage distributors ink minor NCB Edited July 13, 2021 by jeranimal CGC grade added Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnybooks Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 3.0? 3.5 max? I don’t have much experience with moisture damage to this extent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPH1964 Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Clean, press and grade it. 4.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 (edited) Ouch. Too bad about the moisture damage. A clean/press should help some. Edited April 27, 2021 by Galen130 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigLeagueCHEW Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 I would get it pressed. Still a nice book. Depending on what they say about the moisture issue. 6.0 to 7.0 ish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeranimal Posted March 16, 2021 Author Share Posted March 16, 2021 Thanks for the grades I've received so far. Wide range (3.0 - 7.0) as expected with the variety of defects. Any others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeranimal Posted April 27, 2021 Author Share Posted April 27, 2021 (edited) Just got this one back from getting pressed. Let me know what you guys think. Edited April 27, 2021 by jeranimal Added more pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCOComics Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 It looks much better after the Press. I'm calling it a 5.0 The book presents better than that. I just think the BC moisture damage going through interior pages is going to take it down a bit. jeranimal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
