SPIDER HOUSE
by Van Wyck Mason
Handi Book paperback (1949)
MY PAPERBACK GRADING SYSTEM
I try
to be fair and honest in my grading, and make every attempt to mention loose
pages, stains, binding damage, etc. Please understand that the glue used in the
binding of old paperbacks was not designed for longevity; when old paperbacks
are opened for reading, additional pages may loosen at that
time.
EXCELLENT: in exceptional condition; not perfect, but very high grade.
VERY GOOD+: still nice, but showing its age; some overall wear.
VERY GOOD: the average used paperback; not heavily read, but shows an accumulation of wear and creases.
GOOD: a complete copy, but well-read with worn
edges and a greater accumulation of creases and other
wear.
