My Grading System Explained : -- GOOD, G OOD + ... mostly clean, with minimal wear … or … Light edge/corner wear/bumps, minimal chip or tear at edge … maybe a bit of ink from the cancel on front (see description & enlarged photos for each auction). -- FAIR+ or FAIR TO GOOD, or FAIR These cards have moderate edge and/or corner wear, maybe one or more creases, an edge tear, or some soiling (see description & enlarged photos for each auction). --POOR TO FAIR these have rough edge/corner wear, possibly significant creasing and/or soiling or tears (see description & enlarged photos for each auction). --POOR It is rare that I list one of these.
