Popular Post mwotka Posted April 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 12, 2022 Just acquired this beauty over the weekend, very excited. A few spine tics by the top staple aside, it is pretty darn clean. A little cover tanning but even the graded 9.4 has that. My nicest Baker book for sure. Wondering if you all think this might be a Circle 8, with the 8 on the cover? I was looking at some others but don't think I saw any without the circle. The cover inks on this thing practically jump off the page. And as far as APCs go, I think this is a top 3 cover.

Had to think about it… Great copy though, congrats! I write my 8's like that...and S's...it's "wrong" but it works better for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Circle 8s with writing on the cover are from the 60s and have an 8 in a circle. 50s books seldom have markings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post gadzukes Posted April 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 12, 2022 I bought this raw on ebay at a shockingly low price. Just lucky I guess. Just got it back from CGC today. 5.5 actually ties for highest graded copy. mwotka, Point Five, Miamiknight3434 and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Point Five Posted April 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 12, 2022 (edited) Speaking of obscure Bakers, here's one more. Pretty cool colors and action scene!... the colorist really went to town on this one. Will submit it to CGC at some point.

I love all good presenting Bakers, what is funny is I never chased highest grade books (except the mile high bakers), its just that even some mid+ grade are the highest, there is so few high grade Baker titles that have been graded (its crazy how few are on census in general) ... at least for now.
