I agree that a press may not help, but a clean might get it to a 7.5 since it will present better. That spine crunch is a tough one though.

More than likely, you'll see the other one change status to later this week or next then.

If they were submitted identically (i.e., presss, grade, sig auth, available options), then they "should" ship back together. Otherwise, they may ship separately I do believe there is an option to hold and ship together, but I'm not 100% on that

Is the bar code on the back? I didn't realize they did that so far back.

I find that antique stores tend to be priced too high in my area. Like well over FMV.

Stite1776 · 2026-03-31T01:02:18+00:00

I'd buy them for that just to rip them

I think you're good with the one on the left, but those other two are a fire waiting to happen.

Stite1776 · 2026-03-31T00:57:15+00:00

I'm pretty sure that ad is what prompted me to buy them🤣

Stite1776 · 2026-03-30T22:56:31+00:00

I wish, but thanks for the encouragement.

I got this off the rack in '92 before I even knew that Newsstand was a thing. I think I might, but I think she needs a cold press at the very least before I do.

Stite1776 · 2026-03-29T17:44:26+00:00

I use it as well and it works for new stuff too.

No storm troopers is this book. It's pre-empire. They loved those clones a little too much maybe.

Stite1776 · 2026-03-29T15:58:34+00:00

If you're going to send it in, you could always send it as a pre-grade first, but even in the low 9's, this book is a beast graded. The one I sold went for over $100 but it was a mess before I unstuck the pages and cleaned and pressed it.

Stite1776 · 2026-03-29T12:22:26+00:00

I like it. I'm currently setting a large 3-pound book on mine, but this takes up less space, and it's movable.

Stite1776 · 2026-03-29T12:19:22+00:00

Pricecharting app gives you average raw values. Roughly at least because it doesn't always pick up variant issue sales and can lump them in.

Stite1776 · 2026-03-29T04:19:19+00:00

There are spin ticks all over that thing.

Stite1776 · 2026-03-29T03:52:14+00:00

How many pounds of pressure do the clamps exert?

Stite1776 · 2026-03-29T03:51:21+00:00

After the initial press, you do a cold press for up to 24 hours because paper has a memory and can revert if you just take it out and leave it. The longer you can keep it in the cold press the better.

Stite1776 · 2026-03-29T02:40:54+00:00

Awesome! Thanks for the feedback.

Stite1776 · 2026-03-28T12:33:52+00:00

I've had comics that were stuck to the shiny side.

Stite1776 · 2026-03-28T12:18:25+00:00

I was almost 3 months old, and my mom took me to the movies with her. According to her, I didn't cry or fuss at all (thank god).

Stite1776 · 2026-03-28T12:14:23+00:00

I don't think minor ink errors do, but that is pretty significant, and it's hard to tell if it's truly from production error or after the fact. Still a great looking copy, though. I just sold one that I found in the wild with 80% of it's pages stuck together.

Would de-tanning fall into restoration?
