scburdet Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 1.8/2.0. The missing pieces are going to hurt along with the creasing on the cover Mak420 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibou Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 I could see it going anywhere from a 1.5 - 2.0 but I think a Good- or 1.8 is about right. Mak420 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mak420 Posted August 29, 2022 Author Share Posted August 29, 2022 That is perfect for me! I’ll clean and press it and see what happens from there! Hibou 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until I saw the other photo with the back open, and it's clear there's no paper. That's going to hurt you on the grading contest point system, maybe a -1 grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcjames Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 1.8, missing pieces seal the deal. But... it's a IH181! Hibou 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJD Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 I was thinking 1.8, but I don't know what that missing back cover piece will do. Might still be 1.8, but could drop it down to 1.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll clean and press it and see what happens from there! 1.0... 1.5 at best with large chunks of cover missing. You're wasting money with a clean and press. It will not improve grade or appearance and may further damage the fragile semi-split spine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd call the book a 1.0 due to the amount of the back cover that is missing. Great low grade copy though, hopefully you snagged it at a good price.
