whomerjay Posted September 12, 2020 Author Share Posted September 12, 2020 (edited) I don't remember buying this restored (I tend to make note of such on the backing board) but this appears to be ct on the cover. I don;t see it on the inside but the paper on the inside looks a bit odd. I am not great at resto detection but I know if senior boardies will call this out from posted pics I will certainly defer to them. If the consensus is this needs to be graded restored, please suggest a grade. I apologize, we will restart bidding on this book.

Comcav Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Since I am a bidder, I am not sure it is appropriate for me to comment on the grade of a book as that gives the appearance of being self-serving. However, if some of my friends could, that would be great. Casablanca 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsp99 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Looks like there is also ct on the inside FC along the spine, possibly done to mask bleed through from the front. It's old school resto it looks like. I'm around g/vg with amateur ct. Funnybooks, Casablanca and Point Five 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus offer returns for any reason. If everyone thinks it's appropriate, I'll change the grade to 3.0 restored? Hudson and Casablanca 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The paper would age naturally in a more uniform way. either something was over those white areas (if it was a front cover, you see those tape stains causing that effect in reverse) but since it is inside front cover, something has artificially caused them to be more white. like white paint.
