n2wdw Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Last Matt Bakers of 2016 (This is from my Journal today - thanks for reading http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=7287580&fpart=68) I won a couple of Matt Bakers last week. I'm pretty sure these will be my last Bakers of 2016. So here's where I stand in my goal to get a copy of every comic with a Matt Baker cover. By my count, there are 299 such comics. I have 90, with an average price of $115. The most I've paid is $510. The least $4. The 2 acquisitions below were kind of surprises. The first one was an offer on an eBay BIN. I made an offer and it was accepted. I knew the seller and I based my offer on my past deals with him, so maybe this one wasn't as much a surprise. The second win was definitely a surprise, as you don't see these giants very often. The seller was BakerFan and I was very happy to win the auction. Thanks for reading.

Sqeggs Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Bought this one on eBay nearly four years ago as a GD/VG. Finally got around to having it graded last year. Unfortunately, because it's in a magazine-size slab it was awkwardly wedged into a box of normal-size slabs and the slab was badly damaged. Not just cracked, but smashed. Luckily the book wasn't affected and I was able to get it reslabbed. Tough book. Anyone have a high-grade copy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps a wee bit underrated when compared to some other big Baker books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
