Hi Bruce, thanks for this, I hoped that with your b/g in collecting pressbooks
you'd share your view.
Incidentally, are there many pressbooks that you still need? You must have
them all by now, surely?!

Subject: Re: [MOPO] Pressbook CUTS and effect on value
The biggest issue IS what is cut. Most pressbooks have a ton of very repetitive
newspaper ads, and cutting one of those has little impact. A cut in a story
would be next important, followed by cuts in non-repetitive interior non-poster
images, Next would be a cut in a poster image, and worst of all would be a cut
in a cover that is an attractive image.

Hi Kirby, thanks for coming back. The question is hypothetical, but I've been
thinking that there are quite a few examples of titles where I'd never buy a
poster, but that the pressbook would be a (much) less expensive way to hold
paper on a title. But I don't want to start acquiring Cut pressbooks if the
presence of Cuts completely kills their value to a large portion of collectors.
It sounds like you're saying it matters less with rare/top end stuff, but that
the nature and extent of the Cuts play a part if reckoned against a complete
example. Cheers, Neil
