marvelmaniac Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 Blunted corners with a small color breaking crease at the top right corner, two long color breaking creases starting at right edge under the issue number/date, spine roll w/fanned pages, multiple wrinkles/creases on rear cover along with some staining/foxing. 6.0 FINE (FN): Back to TopAn above-average copy that shows minor wear but is still relatively flat and clean with no significant creasing or other serious defects. Some accumulation of minor bindery/printing defects is allowed. Minor cover wear apparent, with minor to moderate creases. Inks show a significant reduction in reflectivity. Blunted corners are more common, as is minor staining, soiling, discoloration, and/or foxing. Stamped or inked arrival dates may be present. A minor spine roll is allowed. There can also be a 1/4" spine split or severe color break. Staples may show minor discoloration. Minor staple tears and a few slight stress lines may be present, as well as minor rust migration. Paper is tan to brown and fairly supple with no signs of brittleness. Minor interior tears at the margin may be present. Centerfold may be loose.

LowGradeBronze Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 4.5 or 5.0 best, with that long diagonal crease FC and creasing BC. Bottom staple placement not the best either, leading I'm sure, to some reading related wear to FC in that area, but not visible in photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arDeaton Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 Around a 5.0, Which seems to be the consensus. A clean and press would help it a bit. Were you going to send it in to be graded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
