The phrase 'Light Tan', which appears to deter 95% of the comic buying community.

 

Why did they not list it as cream to off -white pages instead of light tan to cream. Is not there a stage between light tan and off white or does the book somehow consist of some light tan pages and some off white pages but no cream pages?

I assume it's because the worst page coloration present was light tan and the best was off-white. Cream is the stage between light tan and off-white...would you rather they used a "Light tan to cream to off-white" designator?

 

On a separate but related note, I've never seen them use "Light tan to cream" myself...anybody else seen this?

That's a good question you both bring up. I always thought it would be:

 

White Pages

Off-White to White Pages

Off-White Pages

Cream to Off-White Pages.

Cream Pages confused.gifgrin.gif

Cream to Light Tan Pages

Light Tan Pages

Light Tan to Tan Pages

Tan Pages

Tan to Brown Pages

Brown Pages

Brown to Brittle Pages

Brittle Pages
