Tom789 Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 (edited) This has been pressed once by me. Not cleaned. No interior or staple issues. Flaws that I see: 1. Three color-breaking spine ticks. One of the ticks has a noticeable crow's-foot bend that could possibly be improved with more pressing, but these are very tough for me. 2. Thin strip of faint/light color rub along front spine starting at the top of the top staple and extending down to about the middle of the book. Can barely make out in photo. 3. Tiny crease, 1/16" or less, top front right cover. Didn't take a good picture of it. 4. Small creases, bottom back left cover. 5. Slightly tilted miscut such that inner pages are showing on the top right and putting a thin black strip along the back left cover. There is some small color loss in the center of the strip.

LowGradeBronze Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 9.0 for me. Those minor flaws prevent me from going higher. Tom789 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
