comicnoir Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Safe to say this may be the best copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Those "low graders" would be fine with me! I take what I can get on this stuff. Glad to finally grab these two, in recent months... even low grade copies such as these... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I used to find Baker books at the flea market and they were cheap. The price went up and the collections disappeared. I can still find Little Lulu, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sqeggs Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Safe to say this may be the best copy. Of course, the census isn't the last word with Baker books, but there are only three copies listed: 8.5, 5.0, and 4.0. So, yep, yours might well be the best out there.

Robot Man Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Oh, man what a stash! Some I have, some I don't. (some I'll never get anymore...) I love hunting flea markets in PA!

Robot Man Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 OK, Kids, here is another Baker oddity. Record Book of Famous Police Cases Giant WITH the Mexican version. Can't be many of these out there. This weekend I delved into my Giant/Annual boxes. I forgot how many St John annuals I had. (I think I am missing only 2). I used to buy every one I could because I loved annuals and Matt Baker did most of the St John ones. They aren't all Romance though. I've got to put them on my photobucket. Any you would like to see first? LOVE the colors on this one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RICK STARR Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Here is my PR #5. Is that the 8.5 copy that sold on CC a few years ago? If so, what a steal at todays prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All but one of those was from the flea markets. Did you used to search for robots in PA? I knew a guy that did that. I asked him about the robot I had as a kid and he called it a "Zoomer".

Robot Man Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Yeah, I look for comics, toys, premiums, robots, pulps, advertising stuff, political pins, sports ect. Have found some great stuff in Addamstown, Kutztown ect. Always fun to hunt in different areas. Out here I know all the players. There, everything is fresh and different. Do you still find any GA comics out there? Oh, a Zoomer is a good one! I've got a couple in my robot picture. Oh, man what a stash! Some I have, some I don't. (some I'll never get anymore...)

Sqeggs Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 This one surprised me: TAR 3 auction Tough book, I guess, but that's well more than I paid for a CGC 5.0 not long ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sqeggs Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Can't remember if I've posted this before. Oh well. Nice! Tied at the top. One of the first Baker books I bought was the Crippen copy of that issue. It's currently on a looooong Florida vacation. Will be interesting to see what it grades at. Probably below 8.5, I think.
