Spare a grade - As always the more feedback the better ! 1 1

[FlyJ]

Still learning more about grading everyday ...please give your opinion , it helps allot! I posted this a month or so ago but think this thread will be much more productive

Slightly blunted corners, a few slight stress lines, slightly discolored staples, it appears that either the top of the rear cover is not trimmed properly or the front cover is not folded correctly and is overhanging, there appears to be an indentation on the rear cover by the top staple, mark at lower right of rear cover.

I do not know what is happening with the top of the rear cover, if it camera angle or just poor trimming at the bindery then...

9.0 VERY FINE/NEAR MINT (VF/NM):  Back to Top
Nearly perfect with outstanding eye appeal. A limited number of bindery/printing defects are allowed. Cover is almost flat with almost imperceptible wear. Inks are bright with slightly diminished reflectivity. An 1/8" bend is allowed if color is not broken. Corners are cut square and sharp with ever-so-slight blunting permitted but no creases. Several lightly penciled, stamped or inked arrival dates are acceptable. Very minor foxing. Spine is tight and flat. Staples may show some discoloration. Only the slightest staple tears are allowed. A very minor accumulation of stress lines may be present if they are nearly imperceptible. Paper is off-white to cream and supple. Very minor interior tears may be present.

I didn't see it when you posted it before, but I'll give it an 8.5.

Front cover very sharp; back cover has spine wear and corners are a bit worse, and looks like a dirt streak (?) towards the bottom. 8.5 feels about right.

Also, going forward please put the name and issue of your book in the thread title. All your threads have similar titles right now and it's hard to tell them apart.

Cheers!
Jon
