Jcrawl Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 (edited) Would love some thoughts on this book. I don’t have much experience in estimating grades on books prior to the modern age, my first thought on this book was around the 5.0 range. It wouldn’t allow me to upload more pictures so I only have an overall of the front and back cover. The interior is off white to white and is complete and attached firmly at the staples. No water damage or hidden surprises inside. Thanks! Edited August 21, 2021 by Jcrawl Typo Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jcrawl Posted August 25, 2021 Author Share Posted August 25, 2021 It’s a spot of dried white paint, I’m guessing from the original distributor but not totally sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zegeroth Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 This is a 5.5 before considering the paint spot. Paint drops it to 3.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jcrawl Posted August 29, 2021 Author Share Posted August 29, 2021 Thanks for the input everyone! Would have likely had it slabbed if the paint spot wasn’t such a big issue, but I think I’ll wait to get a cleaner copy. This one will stay as a reader copy. grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
