Jemin Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Worried that a clean and press will do more damage than good. Am I being paranoid? Galen130 and 1950's war comics 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galen130 Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 50/50. The moisture damage or stains can be cleaned...for the most part. If those creases in the white break ink, a press may accentuate that. I say go for it. Do the staples have rust? The pics are a bit blurry...

Kind of hard to tell because they are buried in the spine a bit which is why I am worried about a press (albeit I do not know what the process entails, just paranoid ). It doesn't look like it on the inside of the book though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
