Dell book to Dell comic... (and Fools to Fairies)…

There was no description other than "Poor", which could mean a missing centerfold. I messaged the seller with a couple simple questions, but he never responded, so I decided not to take any chances. Too bad, too- I might've paid just over 1K for a very low grade but complete copy that looked like that one.

Homer Simpson: "Mister Burns, you're the richest man I know!" Mr. Burns: (Sighs) "Yes, but I'd trade it all... for a little more."

Why get so worked up? "Just relax and let the hooks do their work."

Cool. I don't think I've ever seen a Spanish edition of a St. John romance comic, though... (Anyone...?) I've seen a few Australian (or New Zealand) romance books, though, and I pick them up when I can:

I've enjoyed seeing the APCs... for me, the St. John crime (and western) is the final frontier in collecting Baker. The romance has been collected to the best of my abilities, but books from the other genres, I've only picked up here and there as I went... I still need many APCs. Collecting Bakers has never been slower for me than it's been in the past couple of years (higher prices, seemingly lower availability), but in the past couple of years I scored a decent run of APC #27 thru 29, a great mini-run, imo. Also, a couple super scarce Bakers seemed to fall into my lap... (does this seem to happen more often when you're not trying real hard? It seems like that to me.)

Always the best time to buy expensive GA.

Just relax and let the hooks do their work.

Nonfiction to "True" Love Pictorial...

Eye to Eye...

Took my a long time to find a copy of that one. Great book! I've got a copy... but I want that copy- the real nice one recently posted!

Uuhmm. I own practically all of them. GCE 12 and Seven Seas 4 included. I'll bet RICK STARR can say that, too... as well as a few other boardies.

Oh, not so. I never did pick up quite a few Bakers I wanted... such as TR 9 and 10, for example. I've only ever owned Phantom Lady 15 and 18, but would've liked 16 and 17, too. The two big ones I missed are GCE 12 and Seven Seas 4 (which are now so expensive, their costs have greatly outdistanced my desire to own them).

Keyhole to Key comic

Breaks my heart. But... if the rings are that conspicuous, won't CGC reholder the book free of charge?

Not for sale (yet... and hopefully not for many, many years!)

I think Joanna gets the credit for spotting this one.

I seriously thought about this one, too, but I already have a nice mid grade copy. Great pickup! Glad it was you who won it.

Me too! "Cat Fight" covers rock! No arguments here. (I know it's not GA, or romance, but here's another longtime fave of mine:)

I want it.

Love it!
