Just looking at that I would say the *best* it could possibly come out is a 6. Could very well come out lower. And it's hard to say if it's worth it without knowing how much it costs and how much you want it. | ||

As per the Overstreet grading guide, a 6.0 is the starting point for this grade limiting defect. Minor to moderate creases are allowed in a 6.0. From this starting point you work your way down depending on accumulation of additional defects. My guess without seeing any more of this book is a 5.0. (discoloration of staples, blunted corners, spine ticks). Just my 2 cents. In closing kudos on a great book in any condition. | ||

Not much to add that hasn't already been said, but there's a YouTuber named Eta Nick who has a series of videos on CGC grading (which some say is not as strict as true Overstreet guidelines), and he has, what he calls, a cheat sheet for grading. He seems highly knowledgeable on the topic. Anyways, here's his cheat sheet. It puts that book with that crease at 6.5 max. Nice book either way ![]() ![]() |
