PGM XMEN 9

[mattinglymint23]

new one up today. has what I believe is a subscription crease but to be honest my first encounter with one so hoping for some confirmation.

 

pages are OW/CR. no tears or chips inside. book feels pretty tight, of course staples are offset towards back but relatively clean. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

What's going on at the bottom edge?

[HighStakesComics]

X is right. BC looks poorly trimmed. Otherwise textbook 5.0. Purple label.

i added a bigger shot of bottom edge - could be a trim - at first i thought bc was just overhanging the pages and took a little wear - its more worn toward middle of the seam

 

yeah, if trimmed - why would someone have bothered, didn't fix the middle of the edge.

 

but i know for next time, didn't spot that when i picked it up. thanks.

when your looking at raw books always look at the edges carefully. sometimes I will take a backing board, slide it between the cover and the first page for contrast. you can really see the edge better, but this is just my opinion, and usually worthless in these parts. same thing on the b.c.
