tic81 Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Hey everyone! Looking for some help. Looking for a grade on this one. Particularly if the dust shadow will greatly effect the grade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mars76 Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 I see a few spine tics, dust shadow, and what looks to be a couple of very small tears in the back. I say 9.0-9.2. tic81 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say 9.0-9.2. Yeah still have to press it, I dont think any are color breaking. So it seems like the dust shadow isn't a huge hit to the grade then.

scburdet Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 I do see the shadow, but I never know the different between a dust or sun shadow. In principle, a dust shadow can be removed, but a sun shadow can't. IMO a "newer" book like this will be judged more harshly than a SA or GA book with the same issue. 8.0/8.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
