From Alter Ego #47, "Baker of Cheesecake" by Alberto Becattini, referring to the Negro Romances #4 cover:
"...there is something "Bakerish" about this cover (the guy in the car, especially has a "Baker face", with eyes drawn far apart). Jim Vadeboncouer, Jr., for one, disagrees, but my guess is that Baker at least pencilled it (with inks, perhaps, by Vince Coletta or Giordano)."
I wish I had a copy to see for myself.
I have been flying blind on this and just digging out what I can find with a Baker cover or story but Alberto has a great article in Alter Ego 47. Baker fans should get a copy. I love the articles in AE and the details but I miss the glossy color of the Comic Book Marketplace. I guess production cost would be too high. But the Baker stuff looks good posted on this thread.
Baker not only did Canteen Kate for Fighting Marines but he also did Leatherneck Jack. This is probably his most gruesome cover.
I think Jack's girl friend could have been Asian as drawn by Baker but they didn't use the correct color mix.
Canteen Kate was so animated. Full figure drawings and action-packed stories resulted from a lot of talent and hard work.
