PGM Tec 502 Color on White Spine 0

[LikeEmScanned]

I'm stumped a bit on this one.  Due to the wrap, the spine is white from the back cover.  There are multiple smudges along this white part, mostly grey/blackish, from the front cover, including a little blue from the nearby DC bullet.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

Just transference smudging, IMO, and where it is, if it bothers you, it'll clean right off with a very mild abrasive, just on the white, not the color area; call it a "wonder bread cleaning".

If the rest of the book is as nice as the front cover appears to be, it could still grade in the NM range...this type of flaw generally keeps books out of 9.6 and above.
