On 12/1/2023 at 5:24 AM, pmpknface said: Try going to advanced and searching "Baker" in the description. It's what I do for LB Cole books, but it's not always 100% accurate. With some of the more obscure covers there's no description. Besides that, it's looking at every listing. Unless anyone else has a better way??? On Comicconnect I used to search by publisher (St John). Don't know if that's functional on CL, but I would often find Baker's with "data entry mis-titled" books (like several of those CGC labels) that were correctly input-ed for the publisher. I don't really search as much these days. Priced out mostly, but only need two St John's anyway (not my favorites either). There are a few weird re-bound issues I'd still like to grab, but those have always been rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darwination Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 There are a lot of "clunky" websites out there in comic land. You'd think Comiclink/Comic Connect's would be better with all the $$$ involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatCaesarsGhost Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 I have not read this whole thread, so maybe it’s already in here somewhere. But in looking thru my books just now, I made the most amazing discovery. It feels like discovering a second Renoir underneath the first one . . . Is it just me, or has Baker reprinted the cover image from Teenage Romances 9 into his cover for Teenage Romances 32?

Popular Post Darwination Posted December 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 10, 2023 (edited) Was taking some eBay photos and was surprised to see some definite Baker. Lovers #71 Sure enough, listed in the GCD. I knew he did some Atlas westerns, but I didn't realize he did romances there, too.

His work is printed by all the publishing houses (either originally or by reprint). I was trying to upgrade one of my DC's, but I guess the word is out.
