Why a 7.0? Tanning? That seems a bit harsh lol. But pls let me know what you see if you have time Edited December 3, 2023 by Corvonie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowGradeBronze Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 I'm in for 8.5 here. Corvonie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 around 8.0. Some kind of patterned discoloration around the top of the inside back cover. Not sure what that is. Grayscale covers are hard to grade by photos. CGC does hate tanning and other discoloration defects, but it's also hard to say where they would come down on this. The same discoloration on a newer book could really get hammered. Corvonie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks as always SC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR.X Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Maybe it's just me, but that bottom edge from the outer corner going in don't look right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvonie Posted December 7, 2023 Author Share Posted December 7, 2023 This is such a weird one bc it’s hard for me to communicate how absolutely stunning this book is in person, aside from the tiny thing on the FC TR and the tanning. I’m very interested to see how it comes back. ill show you…I’LL SHOW YOU ALLL!!! 😂 grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lninefingers Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 I’m at 8.0/8.5. I feel like they’re not very hard on tanning for otherwise crisp books. Corvonie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
