There's 2019 the legends and 2020 book 2 the modern Masters.

 

Anybody read these and would you recommend them?

Are there lots of photos of OA with documented prices?

I do own the books. I might post a few photos of them.

I think that they are interesting. I own them, but haven't spent a lot of time with them. They are full of information and are obviously a labor of love. Books get out of date fast.

Everything I think I know is on this CGC OA thread.

CAT Scale Index! Hey--it takes guts to even attempt creating a quality index # for pages.
Exceptions abound of course, but I'm not sure I could have done any better. (he needs to revamp it to include an eight-point bump for 'birth pages' though   )

Included that line chart because it perfectly illustrates the reality of trying to measure OA.

The book is ambitious to say the least. The context he provides is useful though the prices have moved a bit.
