I’m better at pics than issue/title. And I have to check my own stuff; pretty sure I have the tennis cover but need to verify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not my favorite, or even what I'd call an above average Baker cover, just a rare in good shape one. Definitely curious to see how it goes after that 8.5 went close to 2k. Could this be a 5 figure book? You just don't see Bakers above 9.0 that often and this one is very pretty ... on the front at least. Seen worse shadowing and staining on the back cover of Promise 9.8s I guess, hah. https://comics.ha.com/itm/golden-age-1938-1955-/crown-comics-7-the-promise-collection-pedigree-mccombs-publishing-1946-cgc-nm-94-off-white-to-white-pages/p/7246-19375.s?ic4=GalleryView-Thumbnail-071515 I am actually a huge fan of this one. No where near the later, more refined romance stuff. I guess it’s the race cars, the colors and the cute babe in coveralls. It is by far the toughest Crown and rarely seen. I’ve never seen a copy above fine. szucchini, Yorick, Point Five and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
