Comic Book Conservation Techniques Unveiled!

Описание: Fantastic Four 17 Ep. 6.

In this video I continue a short conservation project for this copy of Fantastic Four #17, published by Marvel Comic in August of 1963 by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. This comic book is 60 years old and it needs a little bit of our help making sure it survives the next 60 years.

In this episode i complete the final press of this comic book and reveal the final results with abundant before and after picture comparisons.

The techniques demonstrated here should result in a CGC Conserved label and in my experience when executed properly do not trigger purple or restored label from CGC.
