And I assume a press would do nothing right ? Any "wear" will affect the grade on any parts of a book inside and out. Only known manufacturer defects will be overlooked when grading. Press will not "help" or improve any defects that show wear such as the spine on your copy. Compare this spine to another book you own ( a recently published book ) to see the difference in the appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
