Thanks
I might still want a 9.4/9.6, there's now a 9.4 coming soon in auction, though it's not very square. I sold my other annual 3(9.0) long ago, but I didn't know how rarely others would turn up.
These two look like NM easily, but in slabs it's still hard to know what they have going on to get a 9.2 grade. The annual is super square, like my original #1 was. I hope to keep it. The #52 has a minor top edge crease, most likely from over wrap there. I might just let Joey have them both, but it could be that CGC has really become strict in the last few months. These were both just graded, I was one of the last to call for grader's notes(Tuesday last week).

Looks great the way it is...
I believe I once showed an ASM Annual 1 to a well known service provider and he said it is not wise to press an Annual. Something about applying heat to a cover that is glued to the book doesn't always work well. The annual looks great as is = I would leave it alone.

I meant for a second opinion, a second pair of eyes more familiar with seeing defects through the cases. My eyesight has declined again since Lasic surgery in 2003. I'd trust his opinion over mine as to whether it would be worth resubmitting.
I sent three of my old raw annuals in last year to CGC. The #4 and #5 looked very much like this #3, and those came back as 9.6 and 9.4 grades. I sold the #9 as planned, it was a mid grade copy.
