marvelmaniac Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Moderate color rub along edges and top of spine, small color breaking crease/scratch at lower edge, minor to moderate foxing/discoloration along top edge and spine of rear cover. IMO...FN+ 6.5 VF 8.0 - Inks are generally bright with moderate to high reflectivity. Minor foxing. FN/VF 7.0 - Inks are generally bright with a moderate reduction in reflectivity. Minor foxing. FN 6.0 - Inks show a significant reduction in reflectivity. Minor staining, soiling, discoloration, and/or foxing. VG/FN 5.0 - Inks have moderate to low reflectivity. Minor to moderate staining, discoloration, and/or foxing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowherebound Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 My guess: 7.0 ... could improve with a clean & press, to around 7.5. Thanks for sharing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
