Alright you confirmed my first thoughts, like you said sucks its so dirty. Thanks guys!

Curious what you all think on this, is it worth cracking cleaning and pressing? I think the back cover in particular could really be improved.

Graders notes: 

crease full center of back cover
crease full center of front cover
moderate creasing to cover
soiling on cover
spine stress lines to cover
wear all corners of cover

I see a few spine tics, dust shadow, and what looks to be a couple of very small tears in the back. I say 9.0-9.2.

Yeah still have to press it, I dont think any are color breaking. So it seems like the dust shadow isn't a huge hit to the grade then.

Hey everyone! Looking for some help. Looking for a grade on this one. Particularly if the dust shadow will greatly effect the grade? 

Curious if a 1/4" dust shadow on the back of a 1970s-1980s book is going to be a big hit to the grade? Down the side or across the top/bottom (top in the attached photo). Experiences with this?

x men 95 - my observations the top edge of the cover, some corners, very light dust/oxidation shadow, bottom staple? I think the line on the back is a production crease?Thoughts? Thanks!
