JvR11 Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 (edited) In high grade,....a couple of really nice Bakers have shown up on C.Link...but man-o-man they are expensive. I'd love to have them if money were no object. Any of you the owners of these books?

rjpb Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 The price on that Cinderella Love seems particularly insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that isn't a restored copy of the one I sold for $15. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JvR11 Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 I'd love to hear other "lasts" in Bakers...here is what I know Last St. John, Baker romance cover.. "Secrets of True Love" Last non-reprint(original) Baker romance story St. John (thanks Dukedog for the info) Cinderella Love 14 Last Baker romance (pencils) (contribution includes Colletta). Interesting how long after his death Colletta had this. It would have been published in 1962. This was never published: First Love Illustrated 90 If we look at "last published", I think I would have been First Love Illustrated 89. These are not his best works by any means since they were not inked and penciled by him. I'm not sure what the last issue "inked and penciled" by Baker would be...I'll have to look into this. It's difficult to know outside of St. John. Anyone have any other "lasts" to add? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Frazetta did more romance than I realized a few years ago. Here are a few more splashes that are out there on the internet. From Personal Love 25-27 And an extra page that was posted previously. I think the color improved in later issues. I touched up errors by the printer in the first three.

JvR11 Posted October 5, 2009 Author Share Posted October 5, 2009 I finally got two pages of Baker original art....and can I say I'm blown away...to say it mildly. This is my first original art purchase and looking at all the details and to know that Baker personally did the inking on these.... It really is a different experience seeing this in person vs. looking at it in a photograph. I'm so amazed by all the details and the minute inking.....

Scrooge Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 She's on a roll. First the batch of St John's, now these pages It makes you cry once you compare the printed page in a comic to the original art detail. So much is lost in the printing and so much is lost to some of the bad coloring choices made. Great pages! Is that Jack getting clubbed in his lab on the second tier right panel?
