The wrinkles/stresses evident at the bottom of the back cover spine photo plus the binding marks on the top and bottom edges should eliminate this from grade considerations above 8.0. badback83 and meself 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahsoka Tano Jedi Apprentice Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 7.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alf Pogs Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I was thinking 9.4 until I saw the back. I would put it in mylar and it would be one of my favorite raws! Luv it! I still need a copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conan09279 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Awesome book. I'll say an 8.0 - corner chip top and lower right, color loss above super and near the staple, and creases and some wear on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ0605 Posted January 21, 2018 Author Share Posted January 21, 2018 Thanks everyone. Ya I know, the back cover kills me when I see it. I don't think a press will help much but I'll probably send it in just to see if it'll get any benefit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1Cool Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I can see a 9.2 with a press but 9.0 would be the safe bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhamlau Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 8.5 as is, 9.0 with good press potentially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
