Would it be possible to send you a scan of a book to see if a pressing would help?

The after image is broken which makes it totally anti-climactic. o_o

Pressed a Batman Adventures #12 today, this was the back cover which had a damaged lower spine as you can see before after photos of what Elvis was able to do.

Been a while since I posted a before/after, but having been asked by Rokstarr99 to work on a few of his books, his main concern was getting his BA #12 into maximum grading condition, which I've done. There's a slight glare on the book as I had to hold the camera at a certain angle to really showcase the spine issues which were pressed out and this book is a solid contender now.

Westercampus sent in his damaged X-Men #266 for me to work on today. The book has a pretty serious crunch in the lower right on both the front and back, as well as a few indentations in the cover which I pressed out for him and am sending into CGC for grading now. I took some before/after photos for you to look at below to get a better idea of what pressing can fix for you.


Note: I started on your books today too George.

Nice spine roll fix. How long did that take?

Some before/after on Rokstarr99's New Teen Titans #2 which visited Elvis this week.









The photos don't truly show how warped this book was, but Rokstarr99 knows how bad it was before.
