Bright F-VF copy Digest size Private Bill 1943? The Warehouse of Wonders presents this digest sized text and picturesThe size is about 5x7 inches. Including Private Bill's Dictionary of Service Men's Chin Chatter created, compiled and produced by Harry "A" Chesler Features Syndicate. "During every historical crisis in the life of a country many things are evitably reborn - political power structures, art, music, the advancement of science, are but a few in the reconstruction of society. One element rarely thought of in conjunction with the upheaval is the birth of language. The Armed Forces of the United States of America since their inception have created thousands of slang expressions that have become part and parcel of our everyday lives. Some of these expressions have long been laugh producers in the Army, Navy, Air and Marine Corps, others have been added since Pearl Harbor. When our "Boys" take over Rome, the Romans will be "saying it" the American Way. That goes for Berlin and Tokyo too. To date, this book represents the American Serviceman's creation of U.S. Slanguage. Laugh and learn while you read." - Bill O. Lading.Read this legend for an understanding for how our grading system works:M = MintA perfect, unread comic. White pages, sharp corners, perfectly aligned cover, tight staples, sharp square corners, no creases, marks, fading of any kind - no flaw whatsoever. We have never actually graded a book as MINT. To quote Phil Seuling: "Mint is a flavor of chewing gum."NM = Near MintThis is what most comics look like when purchased new, presuming no harassment on the racks. Tight staples, glossy cover, sharp corners, no marks, white pages. Any flaws are HINTS of a flaw. Maybe look very closely and you the perfectionist will see a miniscule mis-alignment of the cover with the pages, or the hint of the rounding of a corner. Run your fingers down the spine and you may feel a crease which isn't visible to the eye. Those are the kind of things which mean that nearly all "as new" comics are graded as Near Mint rather than Mint. You will notice that in our 1000s of listings, we don't use this grade either. VF-NM is usually our top grade.VF = Very FineExcellent condition. Sharp, bright and clean. May have minor spine wear or a small corner crease, or slight surface wear. Often, at first glance a Very Fine comic will appear Near Mint, although closer inspection will reveal trace ( but distinct) imperfections. This is typically the best grade seen for Silver Age comics.F = FineA nice book, still attractive to look at. An optimistic first glance might reasonably hope for a VF or even a VF-NM. Staples still firm, there is at least some gloss, good corners, but closer look reveals yet more imperfections.VG = Very GoodA solid book. Immediately visible but not dramatic flaws - conversely no dramatic virtues either. Just clean somewhat worn and solid. Maybe some creases but no significant tears. Staples still solid. Book still solid, but clearly worn. G = GoodAs VG, but with flaws more pronounced. Creases are a little bigger, maybe a larger tear, staples still attached, but may have stress tears around them. There may be small chips out of the cover. The wear is everywhere but the book is still sound. FR = FairA Fair comic is well worn with large flaws, but the book and cover are still there, possibly a piece or two missing from the cover, a staple may be loose. OK for a reader, a cheap placeholder for a collector.PR = PoorAny graded book should be complete. A book in POOR has its cover and all its pages. Things may be loose or waiting to get lost, there may be a piece missing here or there, but the book is there. Still readable. We do not give incomplete books a grade. We tend to call attention to major flaws that may not be visible in a scan: loose staples, covers, spine splits, tape, extra staplesNote that when a grade appears as (VG-F) or something similar, it means the book was somewhere in-between the two selected grades. And when a listing appears as (G+), it means that the book was slightly better than the grade described, or slightly less in the case of (G-).
