I'm not so sure it's flat. It looks like a pretty big spine roll. The white cover seems to be yellowing. I see some corner impacts. I honestly don't know how much the spine roll brings down the grade. 8.5/9.0 range.

I see some possible spin roll as well. If your looking to get over the 9.0 range, a press would probably be needed.

+1. Once that slight upturn is flattened by pressing, and if those waves across the top margin also press out nicely = CGC 9.4, as I really don't see much more in the way of flaws than that.

This copy looks a bit nicer than the one I posted a few days ago.

an 8.0 ...spine is almost  flat  with no roll....a 7.0 has the slightest spine roll so i would think since the rest of the book looks so good that ....as is this book is a 7.5

I think 7.5-8.0 rust on the staples.
