I am among the list of individuals who did not see this listing (and I have ALL the titles in my search feed - sometimes it just filters correct matches out ). It belongs side-by-side with APC7! I'd always thought of it alongside APC8, but you're right, it does more closely resemble APC7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microbia Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Here’s my DS nn. Was lucky to get this from Comic Heaven about 10 years ago and just had it slabbed last year. I have the distinct privilege of having the lower of only two graded copies on the census! I haven’t read every page of this Baker thread yet but so far do recall seeing a couple of you boardies with nice raw copies of this book. 1950's war comics, 29dukedog, Yorick and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the big one, yes siree Bob; most likely the single toughest Baker/St. John of them all. Besides the two CGC copies, I think I've only seen two other boardies post pics of their raw copies (Robot Man is one, iirc, but I forget the other lucky collector's name...) Yeah, with odds like that, I seriously doubt I'll ever find one, myself. (But who knows, after the minor miracle I recently experienced.) 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microbia Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Great though someone before me once got the best bargain on this book, paying only a dime for what was originally a quarter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it is used! Some old-time dealers would write their prices in pencil on the back cover. Interesting sometimes to see what today is a five-figure book with "$1.25" or similar price written in pencil on the back cover. 1950's war comics, Microbia and 29dukedog 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Microbia Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 The bad boys from Sarasota landed me a large box today and this baby was one of them. Now 4 on census. Not quite the 6.0 that CLink has up now but still respectable. This babe is hurtin’ for the same reputation as TAR 32’s. Take a look at her and ask... Will she ever leave her sh••hole and get there?

Still have to pay off 2/3s of my recent PL 13 but was able to get temporary relief from the comic book buying injunction at my house...in other words even my wife knows I got a good deal on these, still these are likely the last new acquisitions I'll be able to post for the year... The Texan 8 is m favorite of these, an unappreciated abduction cover? with a nice babe on it....as you can see even with this copy though its got some tanning that seems to really plague all copies of this issue, don't think I've ever seen a clean looking copy (I'm sure Sqeggs will post one tho! . I actually got a copy of the Canadian edition (not pictured) that looks much cleaner, maybe they used better paper? I don't know. TWO Great ones there for sure! Nice pickups. 29dukedog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
