Blunted or abraded corners are increasingly common, as is minor to moderate staining, soiling, discoloration, and/or minor spotting (foxing). Penciled, stamped, or inked arrival dates may be present. A minor to moderate spine roll is allowed. A spine split of up to 1/2” may be present. Staples may show minor discoloration. A slight accumulation of minor staple tears, and an accumulation of minor stress lines may be present, as well as minor rust migration. Paper is brown to tan with no signs of brittleness.
