Zordar Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Hello, first time poster, I've had this book since the late 70s/early 80s when my dad bought a collection of books at a garage sale. Some dumb kid (me) got a piece of tape stuck to the back of the book. When I tried to remove the tape, a small hole through to the other side was created. I left the tape in place, and then put a dot of white out on the spot on the inside of the back cover. Years later, realizing that was a dumb idea, I scraped off the white-out. Any ideas on grade, and does the tape/white-out fiasco affect the grade with this book? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kromak Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 I am unsure about the size of the hole. Can you specify it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The actual hole itself is pretty small, probably about 1/8th -1/4 inch diameter. I often wonder if I should remove the tape myself and uncover the hole. There would also be a tape pull around the hole. Edited December 27, 2018 by Zordar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is around 4.0, hard to say, without being able to see the hole in details Edited December 27, 2018 by Kromak forgot grade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
