Usually under-copies to use later as trade bait or just enjoy without risk of handling. I’m leaning towards these three this year. Good enough to slab? I have romance too but I like these covers as a change of pace. Still got over a month to decide though. Getting my copies of Nightmare graded has moved up since the prices seem to be pretty strong now and it’s a great cover so I may take more of these. Anyone know if the Baker romance is hotter right now than his other genres like the above? These are your under copy “trade bait” copies? I am of the school that his better non romance books are really heating up right now. APC, for years, was a dead title, Baker cover or not. I scooped up as many as I could at great prices in nice grades. Just can’t touch them any more. I think the folks that chase the romance ones have gotton wise to this now.

JvR11 Posted June 13, 2019 Author Share Posted June 13, 2019 I think this issue is one of the more uncommon ones. Does anyone have a high grade of TR12? pmpknface, PeterPark and Point Five 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been on the lookout for a midgrade copy or better for awhile. My wife is a scientist and this was published during a time when it was still hard for women to break into the field. I have yet to see one for sale. Great copy! JvR11 and Point Five 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the nicest one I've seen. I've landed 2 copies during the past few years, but both are beat to death, and I can't decide which one is the undercopy.

One of my favorites and hard as nails to find. My copy looks nice but has a 2 inch spine split. Still better than most out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacentaur Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 As noted, very tough book. Bunky sold a raw 2.0 last year, I almost pulled the trigger but multiple pieces of tape dissuaded me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricksneatstuff Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 I’ve had three copies of that book but never above 4.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not my favorite but certainly one of the tougher ones in the run. Best quality about the cover to me is the look on her face. It’s a look I’ve seen before...
