Stuck between two old gas station maps for my wall

I had to pick between a 1972 Gulf map with a big bend in it and a 1985 Mobil map that was almost perfect except for a coffee ring. I went with the Gulf one because the bend gives it character and cost $8 less. Has anyone else had to decide between damaged character and clean boring for your collection?

Whoa wait, you paid less for the one with a bend?

You're missing the key detail here, @the_anna. A bend in a laptop usually means the screen or chassis is damaged, not just cosmetic. It's cheaper because it's a gamble on whether the display or hinge will fail sooner.
