Sqeggs Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 It just looks mis-cut to me... You are probably right ... given this example of the precision work St John was capable of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flex Mentallo Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 is this high for just a baker cover? http://www.ebay.com/itm/SECRETS-of-TRUE-LOVE-1-only-issue-VG-FN-Matt-Baker-cover-1958-/371197384079?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=Z2SZmsk3mONnrLXA%252Bd7Hzz7hJP4%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc Tough book. Don't appear to be any copies on the census. First one I've seen for sale in the past couple of years. Anyone have a high-grade copy? Joanna I think Sure wish she would post more frequently. Been about six months .... She ought to have her own thread to enshrine her complete Baker romance set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fett Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 So what do you think about that right edge? You'll find out soon... Maybe I don't want to! Here is the copy I have, it was cut off axis on several angles as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

29dukedog Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 I've seen other copies of this book factory-trimmed like Sqeggs'. Comic specs were less than perfect back then. My copy is lower grade, but more of the art on the right hand side is preserved than in most copies I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been about six months .... She ought to have her own thread to enshrine her complete Baker romance set. That would be great. She posted some of her books in the early pages of this thread and sporadically thereafter. A series of group shots would be impressive I'm sure.

29dukedog Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Here's my copy low grade too. I believe I sold that copy, about seven years ago. It has a black color touch, doesn't it? Also directed Joanna to a F/VF copy, about six years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also directed Joanna to a F/VF copy, about six years ago. I wonder if that's the best copy around? Given how late the book was published, I would imagine it didn't get much distribution -- St John's distribution was, of course, spotty at the best of times. So I would guess there aren't too many copies left. I would think a truly high-grade copy might have made it on to the census by now, although you never know.
