No wonder I can't win anything. Michael swoops down and they're gone. BTW did anyone here win the PR #18? One other person and I were leapfrogging over each other and I blinked and (s)he got it for $480.00.

Good one Joanna. That's the same copy that sold on CC a couple of years ago for $600.00.

Phantom Lady #23 in 8.0 just sold for $9,900! http://www.comicconnect.com/bookDetail.php?id=416754

My copy.

No doodle on that baby. Maybe you're 3.0 was trying for a Picasso-esque interpretation.

I was shocked at the price it realized. I am keeping my 4.5 copy. It's a book definitely coming into it's own.

Good work. I was one of the under-bidders. Got it for less than 9.2 guide.

I know you've been burned in the past and I understand. I would have risked it, if I'd known. I cracked my PGX 6.0 Brenda Starr 14 and CGC'd it. Came back 7.0. A throw of the dice for sure.

Did anyone out there pick this up? Missed it entirely. http://cgi.ebay.ca/TEEN-AGE-ROMANCES-9-PGX-4-5-Classic-Baker-c-a-BEST-/380356487465?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item588f036929

Great book and one I haven't seen come up too often.

I love this cover and you have it in an 8.5?!

Extremely impressive.

Ah, you were the winner. That went for nice. I was bidding on that, my copy is low grade. Congratulations.

Pardon my ignorance...but what's a Real Life Picture Magazine? Is that some sort of variant?

Oh baby.

I got the pm (thnx Darth). Sounds like a classic case of someone off their meds. You have to feel sorry sometimes.

Please pm if possible.

You never see a Fight 38, especially looking like that.

Everett was using it as early as the first Sub-Mariner story in Motion Pictures Funnies Weekly and Marvel #1. Actually, Everett was using something I believe was called crafttint board. The drawing was done on a special board that had a texture that was made visible with a chemical applied with brush. Roy Crane used it all the time on Buz Sawyer.

Nice job with the one-handed pics! I need to get the Dark Horse reprint. Those are some vintage female poses by Baker. Interesting about the spot blacks. I've also heard it referred to as zip-a-tone. It's kind of 3-D! Zip-tone is shading film used to create half-tone effects. They are in dot, hatch and cross-hatch patterns.The film is cut and placed on artwork with the excess then cut off. Spot blacks are solid blacks laid down with brush and india ink. .

I got lucky. It was a 3 day auction that ended at a weird time. The last copy I saw was on ComicConnect, slabbed 4.0. It went for 3X what I paid for this.

I got it on ebay last month. Went for cheap.

Complete runs?! This is how you've spent your young life? Even I needed a hobby! I think I'd have to get reincarnated to get those runs.
