scburdet Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Kind of like my Luke Cage 1, I pulled this off of the pile of shame for a 2nd look. It also seems like the prices have spiked since the last time I checked in. I've tentatively identified the yellow on the top left corner as overspray, but would not assert that with a ton of confidence. I suppose it could have been next to a book with yellow ink, it just doesn't look like color transfer to me based on location, etc. The defect that really was bugging me is the split in the spine. I tried to show that without exacerbating the problem. It's small, stopping just above the price box. It does not seem like there is reason to believe the spine would more readily split below that more so than any book this old. The rest of the defects are pretty standard fare.

grendelbo Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 The spine split is it's biggest flaw and will likely ultimately determine the book's grade. 5.0 Thanks for sharing. I needed something to grade. scburdet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
