Robot Man Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Was very happy to finally get a copy of this one for a very fair price. You can't be too pickey condition wise with Baker stuff these days.If they are complete with no pieces missing and priced fair, I'm all over them. One of his best. Btw, happy two-year anniversary on the boards! Why thank you Tony. I hadn't noticed. What a long strange trip it has been! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point Five Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Here's a pair of UK editions of 50s crime books with Baker covers. On the scarce side, I'm guessing...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a few UK (or Australian) reprints of St. John romance books with Baker c/a. I love oddball books like those. They've gotta be super scarce.

Never seen any of those. That APC #8 is awsome. One of my top 5 favorite Baker covers. Here is a Baker foreign edition you rarely see.

I'm not sure, but I think that means the #6 is from the UK, and the #29 is Australian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, forget about that place...no wonder they can't put correct prices on their books...I mean, how much is a nail and a tilted square, anyway?

Australia has many, many more snakes than does AZ. Just ask Steve Irwin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
