IMO this book grades at...

1.5 FAIR/GOOD (FR/GD):  Back to Top
Shows substantial to heavy wear. Books in this grade are commonly creased, scuffed, abraded, soiled, and possibly unattractive, but still generally readable. Cover shows considerable wear and may be detached. Almost no cover reflectivity remaining. Book-length creases, tears and folds may be present. Rounded corners are increasingly common. Soiling, staining, discoloration and foxing is generally present. Up to 1/10 of the back cover may be missing. Tape and other forms of amateur repair are increasingly common in Silver Age and older books. Spine roll is common. May have a spine split between 2" and 2/3 the length of the book. Staples may be degraded, replaced or missing. Staple tears and stress lines are common, as well as rust migration. Paper is brown and may show brittleness around the edges. Acidic odor may be present. Centerfold may be loose or detached. Interior tears are common.

BTW...there is nothing wrong with "Well Loved" copies, your copy is in better shape than mine and yours is 100% better than those who do not own any copy.

IMO, any collector would be Proud to have that copy in their collection.

When I was 15, I just wanted a complete run of ASM 1-33. I achieved it, until some B@£*&%d stole half of them! Still, I've got my ASM-3, and it looks great for a 1.5-2.0

 

Wait til you see my AF15 and my ASM-1! Appalling condition!
