Popular Post JvR11 Posted October 3, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 3, 2021 Nice to see the 2008 thread lives on the first page! I was recently looking at the HA auctions coming up. I'm sure these Bakers will fetch a premium as they deserve. I kind of weep a little to think of all the ones I let go at fractions of the prices. But, glad I have the ones I do. I have All Picture All True 1 8.5 but never was able to get the 2. Probably never will unless it's at a local garage sale.

Popular Post JvR11 Posted October 3, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) Sorry for the slightly blurry images, in looking at some historical auctions on HA, don't see this one come up often either.

I think it was just a matter of Bakers hitting a temporary peak prior to the covid run up everything else saw and seemingly not reaping the full benefit. Of late though prices seem to be surging across the board Baker romance, and non romance. Happy with all the better non romance I got while it was still obtainable at upper middle class prices. Pretty much given up on getting any upgrades now. Thanks for the update. I'll add some images to the thread. I'd love to see yours and everyones favorite covers they own. I don't have a high grade but my favorite cover is CL26. I was trying to find the image of my best Baker find but I can't seem to locate it. There was once an auction I went to where you had to bid by the box and my heart pounded when there was Baker after Baker in this box. This guy knew he liked Baker. I sold most of it off and kept some of the ones I needed to fill in my collection. Point Five 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm crazy about the Cinderella Love run, and starting as late as I did it was a bear to put these together. #25 understandably gets the love but IMO the whole run is special. My CL26 is a slabbed 3.0 (& I don't have a pic handy), but here's the rest of my issues. Funnybooks, jimjum12, comicnoir and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were two other recent CL29 sales on ebay and I thought those prices were pretty soft, but admittedly the copies were not in slabs & neither were as nice as the HA 4.0 or the ebay 4.5. And I certainly trust Rick re pricing. Even the copy with a big chunk cut out of the back cover? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't even on the boards yet, but we were talking because I saw you bidding on ebay. I mentioned seeing this, which was out of my price range. You said you were negotiating with the owner.

Fair enough, that's the $799 copy and I missed that. Makes the $660 copy really look like a steal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably would have opened the bag and had the cover break off as I counted pages. jimjum12 and Point Five 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manetteska Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) Actually I just “bought” something on eBay come to think of it. We’ll see if it’s actually shipped and then how the condition is. Edited October 3, 2021 by manetteska typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
