Wow that is a really nice looking "small" book!

I would have to say 9.2 only because the scans are so small. But I'll bet the book is better than that! (thumbs u

[oakman29]

9.2 for sure.

[DavidTheDavid]

A beauty, BIll1. I'd love to have one at that grade. I'd have to agree on the 9.2.

[southerncross]

Seems to have 3 small spine stress, slight wear bottom spine, just a touch of wear top of spine and top, bottom corners are sharp. 9.4 to me

[ARK]

9.4 for me.

Nice book!

[Bill1]

Thanks all! Think I better send it in for the official grade and see how we did!

[The-Collector]

I can see 9.4. 9.6 wouldn't surprise me.

[bighairjer]

9.2 with a great shot at 9.4. Beauty!!

[zosocane]

9.0 to 9.2

[Spiderphill]

9.4

[Bill1]

8.5 white. maybe a little low?

[MBA Guy]

8.5 white. maybe a little low?

Wow, I would have thought 9.2 for sure. Did u buy graders notes? Did you have this pressed prior to submitting?

[Bill1]

No notes, did not have it pressed. I am in the 'no press' camp.

[timfinz]

Although I thought this book would grade higher, with a lot of head bending and twisting I have detected two non CB creases on the top RHS of the front cover.

I would almost be assured that this is what the warrants the 8.5 grade that this book got?

Hope you get the graders notes!

[southerncross]

I cant see those bends on my screen. grading from scans can be a bit off some times

[timfinz]

I have tried to give you an idea of where the creases are. They are very subtle and not easily recognizable but I believe that this is the reason for the lower grade.

[southerncross]

yep I can see them now thanks

That's the reason for the grade

[tsm-migration]

What a pretty book. I'm jealous

Looks like a 9.4 from what I can see in the scans

[Captain_Pike]

Really nice book too bad it just graded 8.5, the colour breaking crease on the front cover upper right unfortunately lowered the grade. I would have thought the book would grade at least 9.2
