The Thing 16

[RobbieC]

Going to try and sell this one but wanted to have you guys weight in on it first.

 

Appears to be an unread warehouse or file copy. You can see above the top staple FC and by bottom staple BC there are tiny dots. This may have been from a book being stacked on top and is very subtle. The staples on this book are clean, They appear to have the tiniest amount of rust migration between the book and the staple on the front cover but you have to look really hard to see it.

Nice book. I'd say 8.5 if I were selling it.

8.0 but always tough when you look at scans on black covers IMO

Agreed...in hand I think it is closer to 9.0. The scan over-exposes every minor defect

Whoa, it's got "Manthing" eyes.

 

I give it an 8.0

8.0 some kind of impact on the back cover near bottom staple?

I see it looks like that in the scan but no, there is no impact there

Just some ink transfer maybe- then 8.5 maybe even 9.0 after a good press.

Looks like an 8.5. You will have trouble getting any higher with a press, methinks, due to the tiny rust stain on the back near the staple. Sweet book! Never read it myself, though
