Blunted corners with tiny color breaking creases at lower corners, edge wear with denting along the top edge, spine roll/cover wrap and top staple not centered, minor spine stress with multiple color breaking spine ticks, small staple tears at lower staple, small piece missing on top edge of rear cover, slight dust/sun shadow on outer edge of rear cover.

6.0 FINE (FN):  Back to Top
An 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.

6.5, maybe even a 7.0 if you give it a C&P.

Thanks everybody!

This was sold to me as VG+.

There aren't any hidden defects that bring it down, it's as nice as it looks.

I'll go 7.5.  Smooth, clean, bright, no Marvel chipping

Looks 7.5 to me with the cleanliness of it and bright fresh colours.
