"BROWN Pages"? (shrug)

 

tanned too long ? (shrug)

 

That book has been posted before. I'm not sure what "quality" "brown" is, but this is another reason why I take the "PQ" on the label with a grain of salt (unless it's "brittle" or "slightly brittle", but even then I may not care depending on the book).

Im guessing after light tan it goes to brown next followed by slightly brittle?

 

There's actually all kinds of "PQ" in bewteen. There's light tan, then tan, then dark tan, and one or two after that before slightly brittle. I have never seen "Brown" before. These are supposed to pertaining to paper "quality" not "colour" anyway, so I don't know what that's about. (shrug)

restored or unrestored?

 

beautiful books!

I'll let Steve comment more, but I remember the 31 was slight (p) --tear seal I think. Very minor. Not sure about the 35.

Righto - the 35 had a popped top staple which was reinforced, so both Slight (P). Happy to have them as is, no thought of reversal at this time.
