csaag Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 bought this ages ago. Not sure what that is on bottom of page 1. Seems like a piece of cardboard glued on. You can see the imprint it caused on the inside front cover. Not that I;mplaiing to, but I'd imagine that would cause a problem if it were to be pressed.

flashlites Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 I will take a stab at this one. The book is in VF/NM condition without the defect, probably 8-8.5. I would grade down about one full point for the defect bringing it down to a 7.0 maybe 7.5. It is an unusual defect, looks to be about the width of a strip of tape? Are you telling us that there is still something glued there? Or just that it appears that something was glued there? KobaltDog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csaag Posted April 20, 2019 Author Share Posted April 20, 2019 still something glued there. It has the feel of a small piece of cardboard. Maybe some type of label where the paper surface of it wore/peeled off? KobaltDog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KobaltDog Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 I'm with flashlights and the others on the 8.0 without considering the cardboard/label thing in page one and I will pull a guess out and say it's a 7.0 with the taped on thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Looks like it had a sticker in it at some point. No idea what that means for grade but looks like a nice VF 8.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
