When it's time to have your books graded, tell everyone:

"I ACE'ed it!"

STATE OF THE ART HOLDER

Our newly designed, industry leading encapsulation case is made of thick, crystal clear plastic with great optics and a tamper evident seal. In addition, we are the first in the industry to feature a built-in hanger tab, making it easy for you to display your books. No more cumbersome and expensive shelving or mounting hardware is necessary!

HOME OF THE ORIGINAL "HANGER TAB SLAB"

NOTE: FADING MAY OCCUR WHEN A BOOK IS EXPOSED TO DIRECT SUNLIGHT FOR A PROLONGED TIME PERIOD

FREE PRE-SCREENING FOR PRESSING SERVICES

In addition to grading, we also offer expert pressing, and we automatically pre-screen all books submitted for grading to determine if pressing would be beneficial. You don't need to do anything  ---  if we see press-able defects in any book you submit for grading, we will contact you to determine if you would like us to press it before grading and encapsulation. No more guessing or wasting money on pressing books that don't need it. Check out our pressing gallery to see the results we can achieve!
