"A Death In The Family"

VF/NM = pretty much as new

"A Death In The Family"

VFN = An 'as new' copy, with minor defects (a very small spine crease, or a very slight dink on the corner). Should have strong 'eye appeal' - with any fault hardly noticeable without close inspection.

"A Death In The Family"

FN = A nice collectable copy, that may show a few signs of wear. At arms length it should look nearly new, but on closer inspection, you may spot small faults - a small light crease, a few spine creases, a small stain, interior pages not perfect white (light browning at the edges OK - heavy browning not OK in this grade). Should still look nice, but not perfect.
