This has been a hotly contested point about this item. Yes it is not in mint condition, and yes it did already have creases in it but they created a new one. The new crease goes in between he two Ls in "Ball". I'm of the mind that even if they had folded over an old crease it still would have been a big deal. This is a fragile item and you can only fold a paper so many times in the same spot before a tear starts. Bottom line it should have happened especially when they have a check slab that is 3 inches longer to accommodate this style of old check.
That being said here is a photo of it raw when it was sent in and you guys can all see for yourselves
