Is that water damage on top of bc?

 

No. It's a bit wavy and dark, but I got this from a 1 owner collection and it was in a trunk for 50 years. That's the biggest defect the book has.

 

Okay, 5.0 then. Nice one! First appearance of bender :insane:

What a great comic! My concern is with the wear at the corners. It looks like there's paper loss on the inside pages. If that wasn't there I'd say it was higher grade..7.0 or so, because the cover shows little stress. But with the rounding of the corners and that waviness on the back, I'd say 5.5. The books presents very well for the grade, though.
