jdraheim Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 This one has a few problems that are new to me. Overall the book looks pretty good but the staples are a little rusty and the rust appears to be on the paper too. On the Back Cover there is a little stain near the lower spine, but it is not rust from the staple. Not sure what it is. Also on the back, under the word "Be", there is a 3 inch scored line which looks like a cut - however it does not penetrate and cut through the cover. The cover is intact, it appears to be a light scoring. Any guesses as to a Grade? Thank you in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That line on the back cover is the impression of the rusty staple on the book that was stored directly under it. The rust from that book transferred to the paper on this one through contact over time. It was probably manufactured with the staples positioned just about in the same placement a this one to cause that.
