phantomdj Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 There is an interior stain on pg 17 and 18. How does that affect the grade? Just a note, the back cover is NOT chipped in the upper left corner (poor photo). It's more of a scuff. Needs C&P. Thanks in advance.

Morganmi Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Is that a tear or printing crease from the other edge going along the top of the iceman title? If it's a printers crease I'd say 6.5. I don't think the interior stain on 1 page will hurt this book as much as the light foxing on the BC lower spine and edge will. If that's a big tear your probably looking at a very well presenting 4.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scburdet Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 I concur an inner page stain isn't going to warrant a big penalty in this grade range, whereas on the cover it would cost you a grade or two. 6.0±0.5. I think the grade will mostly depend on the scuffing on whatever in the purple on the cover is. Hopefully, the clean will make the back cover look better.
