Dr. Love Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 I've been following you folks on this fantastic thread for years. I saw this book recently in the Sale forum, and as I have a nice copy myself, I thought I'd share it with fellow Baker fans. As my board name suggests, I collect romance primarily - promotional comics coming in a close second. I'm getting my Bakers together for slabbing, rereading and scanning, so I'll post em along the way. Andy True Love Pictorial 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Love Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 True Love Pictorial 3 I couldn't really afford it but I couldn't really resist it either. The cover didn't knock me out but the condition of the book....a big ol squarebound looking real pretty can take my breath away. And money (credit) was still sloshing around back in 2005.

29dukedog Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I think that's the single highest graded St. John romance book in the CGC census. Offhand I don't know of anything else that comes close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Love Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 True Love Pictorial 6 The Crippen from Heritage. Structurally very nice, as the collection tended to be, but the page quality of some of them were lacking to say the least. Still, for a romance collector, the year long Crippen rollout at Heritage was a visit to both heaven (for obvious reasons) and hell (because you never knew what the inventory was that you couldn't see yet, and how to budget accordingly). Exciting and nerve wracking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Love Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 True Love Pictorial 10 Artistically, I've always liked the concept of central character placement surrounded by interesting vignettes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Love Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 True Love Pictorial 1 As you can see, a considerable spine roll, but otherwise, not too shabby. . A great candidate for a Matt Nelson press. I'll let you know how it goes. For those of you who abhor pressing, avert your eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-Gun Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Several comments were censored from the Skygirl story in Jumbo 112. Her skirt also became longer in the later issues. Earlier issues featured good girl art with limited restrictions. I wonder if Jumbo 112 started a trend which changed Baker's art and the dialogue of the stories?
