Please bid based on the accompanying images following your own evaluation of centering, perfs, color, and any potential blemishes.  We always strive to point those out unless they are obvious (like short perfs, blind perfs, pulled perfs, etc.) in the images.  If our description is incomplete, unclear, or questionable, please email us before bidding.  We will try to respond the same day.  We also welcome all related questions, discussion, or comments.

Good Luck & Enjoy Bidding!
