Keep in mind that if it wern’t for the beautiful art on many, no one would care about condition. Never feel bad about posting a lower grade cool book!

You just might not be allowed in the Sqeggs VIP lounge without a few highest graded copies… Well, looks like I'll be browsing the bargain bin for a bit while the Sqeggs VIPs are sipping champagne while waving around high grade $$$$ copies - “like you just don’t care” 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd go Gd/VG, maybe VG- with a generous grader. That's my number one, top of the board, runaway favorite Baker cover of all time. It's long been due for a price escalation in line with other top Bakers. Yorick, Point Five and Microbia 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Tri-Color Brian Posted February 19 Popular Post Share Posted February 19 (edited) Mine is missing the top staple...I found that out when I sold it to a boardie. He sent it back. He didn't seem to like that...and it taught me to check the staples...

Popular Post Tri-Color Brian Posted February 19 Popular Post Share Posted February 19 I've been re-scanning a lot of my GA books, since my scanner botched the job the first time (gotta scan at 300 dpi). I was amazed at how much color it missed. Here's a few Bakers...still not 100% perfect, but much better...

Tri-Color Brian Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 (edited) So, to give you an idea of how much a scanner can screw up your books...here's a before and after of one issue...

My default is 300 and I tried higher once or twice, but the time required is greatly expanded. Doing hundreds or thousands of scans seemed prohibited.
