What grade do you think this would get if I press out that ding in the upper left?

I can see this as a 6.0 Restored. There looks to be color touch on the top edge of the front cover.

Thanks for posting.

5.5. More photos of the top edge to look for restoration. I could believe that the shadow on the inside is an illusion that looks like ink bleed through from color touching.

So weird. What appears to be color touch is just a shadow cast from my desk lamp. I took photos again with and without the light on. I didn't even notice when I quickly posted the above photo. You can see the cover has that tiny overhang, which creates that shadow.

Very. Looks to be the same blue of the cover. Good no resto tho.

Yeah, it kind of freaked me out. I thought, wait did I miss that? Then I opened the book and the "color touch" wasn't there and I was baffled for a moment.

If you end up pressing this ding out you should definitely repost the results! Nice book.. this is on my radar for 2024

6.0 with a really good press that gets that dent out of the front cover. Nice copy.
