I have x2 Ironheart#1 Skottie Young variants and thinking about getting one graded. Both are in pretty much the same condition but each one has a specific defect I am worried about. Book #1 has a 1/16 inch tear/color break in the left corner and Book#2 has some light color rub/dirt next to the top staple. Assuming with a press the books would be 9.8/9.6, would these defects drop both below a 9.4? Collecting my fav Skottie Young covers and don't want to go below a 9.4. Any help/advice would be appreciated.  |

| Depends on my over spray is on the entire book. I'd say your skurting 9.8 but it will depend on the grader and grading company. | ||

| @Skcatch You can send them both in and set a grade pre-screen at 9.4 so if they go below that, they won't get slabbed. |

| @Byrdibyrd wanted to send to CGC for skottie young signing and they don't do prescreen for signature series. | ||

| @Skcatch No, they don't! I wish they did. I've had a few books I would have liked to get signed, but not if the condition was below a certain point. |

This has got to be my favorite Skottie Young variant so far. |

Picked this up at a Half Price books. What is this? Color rub? Otherwise the book is tight. Sharp corners. Very flat.  |

| @JGRNOT Is that a printing defect? The bit closer to the spine might be a rub, but I have questions. A rub doesn't usually have such clearly defined white spots against a dark background. Here's a couple of rubs on a Moon Knight cover:  The white spots don't have a distinct border. |

| @Byrdibyrd Ty for the example. I'm not sure. I was hoping someone had more knowledge/insight. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by JGRNOT This could be an example of color lift instead of color rub...but still doesn't quite look right. It's just as likely some sort of chemical splattered on the cover and the ink came off. |
