Supposed to be delivered on Tuesday. I'll scrutinize it. Even if not Baker, it's kind of a cool, scarce book. Not really $1K cool, but I've made dumber purchases!
-
Yeah, usually I just make them up. But this one actually happened.
-
You could just have said, "Hey over there. Come 'ere. I got some books for youse." I'd have responded!
-
I came, I saw, I spammed!
-
Been a few years since I last talked with the dealer who brought them to market. Last I heard from him, he was washing his hands of it, leaving the family to fight it out.
-
I've seen a bunch of them. They also miss a lot of peds. They'll correct errors, of course, but it is a pain to have to send books back. I'm thinking I may just keep this book as is a curiousity.
-
Now you tell me!
-
Got me beat.
-
Been known to happen. Check out the lower spine on the raw copy and the pressed and graded copy.
-
I think it looks nice for the grade. I have a feeling that CCS would have passed on pressing it given the spine damage.
-
I bought this long ago. Surprised when I just checked to find that it's still at the top of the census.
-
I guess I have the highest-graded copy of this Baker cover, except ... doesn't look like Baker to me.
-
Here's mine. I was asleep at the switch in a CLink auction a few years ago in which a much nicer copy (I forget the grade) went cheap--or, at any rate, for much less than I would have been willing to pay.
-
I think I take home the crown on St John miscuts.
-
So was this one.
-
Great Western cover! Looks like the highest graded is an 8.0. Maybe the New Hampshire copy is out there raw?
-
I used to own a raw copy on which the owner had written her name right along the leg.
-
A lock seems entirely unnecessary and indicates a lack of faith in your fellow collectors. Still live at the same address?
-
You should have made the sale conditional on his promising never to take it out of the bag.
-
Nice! I have the Big Apple copy of that issue, too. Definitely better pq than the Big Apple 7.
-
I agree about 7 being the scarcest, although it seems as if some copies have surfaced in the past year or two. I have the Big Apple copy. Nice but with regrettable pq.
-
Nice pick up! One of the three or four scarcest Bakers, leaving aside the 25 cent books.
