Galen130 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 (edited) Hey gang!!! I'm getting ready to send in another batch of Modern books to @Tony S for pressing and CGC submission (first batch since early last fall), so I'm looking for opinions/grade estimates on whether a press will help this book. My biggest issues are the cosmetic scratches on both covers (hope the pics help), or whether or not pressing this foil/holografix cover is even worth the effort. The 'waves' at the top aren't due to moisture damage (I don't think) and the bends on the BC page edge don't break the ink. Thanks so much!!!

BigLeagueCHEW Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Not sure on this one. Scratches may affect grade. The other issue of the folds are always worth pressing. Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galen130 Posted March 30, 2021 Author Share Posted March 30, 2021 Thanks all. I decided to go for it. It’s in my latest batch of moderns, which shipped to my pressing guy first. My first batch since last Fall too, so I’ll be testing the system that newbies have been griping about. Look for a thread from me, asking how long it will take to get my books back. 🤪🤪🤪 Almost forgot, I asked my press guy to pre-screen this book first. Those cosmetic scratches are concerning, so he may return it. We’ll see. Byeeeee!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galen130 Posted May 10, 2021 Author Share Posted May 10, 2021 Well, this book, among others is on it’s way to CGC. No pressing for this comic, but I’ll post pics when I get it back....in a couple years. Fisionbomb and 1950's war comics 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Galen130 Posted November 2, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted November 2, 2021 After seven long months, my 20 Moderns have arrived. I say again, my 20 Moderns are here. The market is too saturated. I will no longer have comics graded. My guy Tony did good by this comic, I’m sure. Unfortunately, no one wins the swamp land I was giving away in Arizona. Thanks to all for your inputs. 🖖 candygramformongo, Fisionbomb, grendelbo and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
