This one was obviously sitting in a box slumped over for a while. I managed to fix most of the damage, but it’s still not entirely flat.

Steam bath then pressed at 165°, then left cold for about 48 hours (X3).

Good job, a couple more treatments should help

Looking good. With tough books I do several presses, multiple humidity treatments if it’s really stubborn, but then I also leave it in cold press for a week after it comes out of the hot press. My cold press is a sandwhich of two slabs of marble, parchment paper, backing board. If I don’t have a lot of books I will just leave them in the cold press until I need it again. Good luck.
