marvelmaniac Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Slightly blunted corners with small color breaking creasing at the top left corner, slight spine stress w/a couple of spine ticks, slight color breaking creasing in the price box, minor discoloration along top edge, cover wrap not centered (I do not notice any spine roll), minor discoloration of rear cover, small tear (spine split?) at top right corner of rear cover, dented lower left corner of rear cover. If there is a spine split at the top, the grade will be lower. 7.0 FINE/VERY FINE (FN/VF): Back to TopAn above-average copy that shows minor wear but is still relatively flat and clean with outstanding eye appeal. A small accumulation of minor bindery/printing defects is allowed. Minor cover wear beginning to show, possibly including minor creases. Corners may be blunted. Inks are generally bright with a moderate reduction in reflectivity. Stamped or inked arrival dates may be present. Minor foxing. The slightest spine roll may be present, as well as a possible moderate color break. Staples may show some discoloration. Slight staple tears and a small accumulation of light stress lines may be present. Slight rust migration. Paper is cream to tan. Centerfold is mostly secure. Minor interior tears at the margin may be present. Azkaban 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scburdet Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 It looks like a spine split at the top corner, which will set the ceiling. 6.0/6.5. Square bound books can get a little leniency, but spine splits are on the CGC hammer list Azkaban 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
