  1. OK, and that mold couldn't have grown there in 3 months, could it?
  2. Here is a book I sold in late February, photo taken maybe 2-3 weeks prior. Buyer returned it for 'black ink' across top pages. I've had this book for 3 years. I have no idea when it was graded, but that's how I purchased it myself back in 2019. I can't say I ever noticed this before, but if you look at the sales ad photo (1st photo), there is a hint of it if you look closely (beneath CGC barcode). The 2nd photo I took today, from the top looking down. Questions 1) Is this black ink or some kind of spreading mold? 2) If it is mold, could it have spread so much, so fast (2-3 months)? 3) Would CGC have graded this a 9.4 if there had been 'any' visible ink or mold across top pages? 4) If this is mold, could it 'infect' other slabs stacked right next to it?
