Turn around time is 27 days. I can ship to Interested in a quality, reputable pressing service?

Fast turnaround times under 2 weeks in most cases. I am located in the Chicago area so you can save on shipping. If you want to ship the books to me I will package the books securely and ship priority USPS in boxes with tracking to return them. I've been doing this for over 10 years for all ages of books including square bound books. I evaluate all of the books and if there are any that will not b

enefit from a press then I will set those aside and let you know. Some books may require multiple passes and up to 3 times in the press is included in the pricing. This service is for spine rolls and waves in the covers mostly but I have not seen many books that don't look better after a press. This will also correct most of the waves caused by water damage. This service does not clean any stains or dirt from the books this just flattens the books to remove imperfections. 10% discount at 50 books. Again this is for books that have been pressed. If a books is submitted but not pressed there is a 3.00 service charge for the evaluation. I will also re-bag some of the books if they are in Ill bags that are too small or may damage the books. I use E. Ge**er My-Lites 2 with full back boards and I can re-bag all of your books for $1.00 per book. Please PM me if you have any other questions.
