Andy, could we please get page quality on these?

 

I'm sorely tempted on the Blue Ribbon 2, too - I've got some old label books listed as CR/OW and the pages were just beautfiul.

Sorry, not sure why PQ wasn't listed. It's OW on the Western Picture Stories. If you want me to look at any others just let me know.

 

You are right, I just looked and the pages on the Blue Ribbon are nicer than you would expect. Mostly OW, with just a hint of darkening on the bottom edge. I would have called them OW.
