Haunt of Fear 19 - high grade with minor defects: how will they affect grade? 4 4

[Qua-Brot]

Got this beautiful copy with very small defects, so wondering if it will get above a 9.0 or not?

See pics for the defects:

small tic on spine
bottom corners both have slight impact/color breaking bend?

Thanks for your input!

I believe this copy will grade minimum 9.0…chance at 9.2

Top edge had creasing that I think will keep it out of the higher NM range - although maybe not with a GA bump. 

I'll say 9.0 but 8.5 wouldn't surprise me.

Gorgeous copy. Thanks a lot for posting it for us to see.

Agreed. I think/ hopeful the GA bump may apply here for the 9.0.

A clean/press should help a bit here.  9.0/9.2
