marvelmaniac Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Color breaking creases on lower, outer edge, moderate lower right corner wear w/multiple color breaking creases, slightly discolored staples, tear/crease on rear cover outer edge, small tear at lower right corner of rear cover, waviness and edge wear at lower rear cover edge, foxing dust/sun shadow on rear cover. If that is a tear on the rear cover rather than a crease or the creases/tears on the outer edge affect the interior pages, the grade I am assigning will be lower. 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.
