New acquisition. There's a lot of nice Matt Baker art in this one.

I looked that up on Comic Book Plus. The first two stories are definitely Matt Baker, but they don't look like 1951 Baker. They look more like 1945-46 Baker from the Crown Comics era. The lettering is also consistent with this.

Reprints perhaps. hm This entire issue was later reprinted as Strange Mysteries #19. Everything is the same except the cover:  https://comicbookplus.com/?dlid=5276

Here are some interior shots I had on file of the Baker in #1. Yeah, looks like Iger Studio.

There is another good story as well.

Yep, definitely a 1945-46 story, with a re-lettered splash panel.
