Bottom right corner of front cover is water stain that goes in almost half the book (before centerfold). Does not enter story panels. Right side edge at center of front cover is printer's crease not torn. Also, 2 undetermined production flaw or old owner scissor cuts on 2 pages. Does not affect story panels. One on centerfold , other on last page (add page). Back cover top edge at center is printer's crease, not torn. Book has off white/ white pages, no detachments. No spine splits. Thank you.

That's what I was thinkin'.

3.5..a cleaning would make cover and back look better , but not sure that would raise grade because of those cutouts and stain thoughout 

[The Man Without Beer]

It's a difficult one imo because the covers look pretty good and no splits/tears/detachments etc. That's why I PGM'd it. Not sure of definition mild to moderate interior tears under 3.0/4.0 in Overstreet. Would it be wishful thinking if it ever was cleaned and pressed to reach a 4.0?

I dont think that's out of the question. Even with those flaws it's a pretty nice book.

Tough book to grade due to the major defect(s) are the interior pages. The reason I went with 3.0 is the cut pages are greater than 4 inches in length and usually if that was on the cover(s), the 3.0 is what I would assign as a grade for the book...i may be too harsh...wouldn't be the first time..haha...i hope you can get a 4.0

I am intrigued by this. Will it come back blue with the defect of cut pages (appears that way to me, because of jaggedness of edges that someone cut it at some point) or will it come back purple? It shouldn't be purple because it does not appear that was done with the attempt to restore the condition of the book....

I am also at 3.5-4.0. If the cuts were not there on those pages, I could see 4.5-5.0 on it

3.5ish.  Has potential for higher after CP.  Good luck. 

[Albert Thurgood]

I would say 4, especially after a clean when it may go higher. If it was me buying it, I would not worry about the cuts. And if it's slabbed, no-one sees them anyway. But that's just me.

3.5/4.0 IMO

[Deadpoolica]

3.0
