A bit more modern for some variety. Thanks for any tips and/or estimates.

Update: So this one was a big disappointment. Another one I should have had pressed I'm guessing, but any thoughts on that are welcomed. It's an 8.0. Notes: light bends to cover; light creasing to cover; light finger bends on cover; light spine stress lines to cover; light staining to cover

Lotsa ticks, plus the stains on the front cover. You hit some of these modern covers in the right light or with a UV light and you see all kinds of stain spots, marks, etc especially on black covers that otherwise go unnoticed. This is often moisture related.

8.0 seems low to me. I don't care what some people say, newer books are judged more harshly than silver / gold, even bronze age books. I usually hesitate to slab newer books for that reason. I think you could have listed this book on Ebay at a higher grade than 8.0 and not have been deceiving anyone. Once it's slabbed you have to take what you get.
