Condition: Internal pages: Good, Binding: Fair, (See Guide Below)
Bakertownecollectables Guide to Condition:
Excellent. This is as near to perfect as it gets. We never say anything is 'mint,' but this is pretty close. No creases, very tight spine, clean pages, no staining. Highly collectible!
- Good. This is still nice condition, but shows some wear from age, perhaps a bit of discoloration and light staining. Spines are well in tact and fairly tight, but not as if it just stepped off the newsstand. Could have slight fading and folding, and light wear along the spine.
- Fair. Still collectible condition, but spine could be a bit loose, there's more moderate discoloration from age and some tears are visible. Occasionally a page or two might have come loose from the spine. Some writing may be visible on the cover or internal pages and there may be light fading or staining.
- Heavily Worn. We wouldn't sell it if it wasn't collectible, but this is very fragile. Many pages may be detached from the spine, front and back covers are loosely attached, if at all. There may be substantial fading and staining, and pages are often discolored from age. In this condition you're buying it because of it's rarity or as a 'readable' copy.
