 So I joined the club today. Hulk 181, complete with Marvel Value Stamp AND the Mark Jewelers insert. Do I gamble & have it pressed and re-graded, or leave it as is? Here are the notes: "spine roll, tears, wear, stress & creases breaks color. 2/3" bottom spine split general wear & many creases to cover breaks color, some are long 1.25" corner piece off top right front cover edge wear, creases & many tears" |

 I bought a meat grinder on amazon for $60 and it's changed my life.

| That book would get damaged if pressed. The spine is too frail. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by kaptainmyke That's what I was wondering. My concern was the spine splitting in an attempt to remove the roll. |

| Yes for sure leave it as is, though it is tempting a pressing would probably bring it to a 2.0 but in the long run not worth it Leave as is |

 I’m not sure they know they’re taking one for the team.

Dude that is a book I submitted to CBCS. It will NOT be improved by a press.  I'm not surprised the guy I sold it to flipped it though since prices have increased. I hope you didn't pay too much... |

| Some books are better left as is for preservation over conservation. The spine would certainly rip if attempting a spine roll fix. | ||
