  1. Yeah, some higher-res pics would be helpful.
  2. 6.0. Look like production creases to me.
  3. This is a very common manufacturing flaw on ASM 300. Almost every copy I've ever seen has it.
  4. Hi all, Book has nice colors, good spine, and mostly blemish-free FC. There is a 3" crease with some rub near the knight's head to the left of DD. The back has some oxidation and a collection of creases and a couple small tears near the bottom left corner.
  5. Hi all, This book is in good shape (nice spine, tight staples)...except that the bottom right side of the entire book seems to have had a passing acquaintance with a wood chipper. There are several cuts that go through all wraps, and the pages are flaking/chipping in this area. I'm having a hard time gauging the effect of this kind of defect on the overall grade. Thanks for looking!
  6. 8.0. Can't really see the crease on the back (I see one upper right corner, doesn't look like a printer's crease). This would probably benefit from a C&P.
  7. 8.0. There look to be a few indentations/NC-breaking creases (one above the "R" in "Dracula", one next to Blade's left foot?) that a press will help with that might get you to an 8.5.
  8. 6.5 F+. I was leaning towards a F/VF but there's a little too much spine stress on the back cover IMO.
  9. Hi all, Book is in pretty nice shape overall. Nice cover gloss. 1" crease bottom right corner FC. I'm wondering though in particular how you all think the small stains across the title (2nd pic) will affect the grade. Thanks for looking!
  10. 5.0. Looks like dust shadow on the back with some oxidation.
  11. I don't see anything noticeably wrong with this...9.4
