Baker Romance

You mean a St. John's non-romance book, since PL and Seven Seas have brought big numbers for a long time.

 

The highest graded copy of Authentic Police Cases #6 (6th Street copy I believe) 8.0, went on ebay for around $1500.00. It then resold on ebay in a BIN, correct me if I'm wrong, for $3550.00!! It took awhile, but memory says that's what happened.

 

Good point. I guess it depends on how you define "romance."

He was having a fling with a young lady. Doesn't that qualify (:

 

The book was not re-sold after on eBay or elsewhere.

 

You seem sure. Was it ever relisted?

I am sure. It was not offered or sold anywhere after that initial sale on eBay.

Was that the same copy that Roy originally offered for sale raw on the boards? I don't remember there being APCs in the Sixth St collection, but maybe there were.

Roy never offered a copy on the boards. That was APC 9. APC 6 is my avatar.

It's interesting to note that the All-True All-Picture Police Cases #2 was half a grade lower than the Cinderella Love 25, yet sold for roughly the same price. Very strong price on the Police Cases, yet not surprising.

I suppose it's a case of CL 25 being the more desirable book for a Baker collector, but ATAPP 2 being a scarcer book. In this case, the two factors resulted in about the same price.

I don't really seek out Baker covers, but I saw this one on ebay (mislisted) and had to pick it up because I thought the art was awesome.

 

Is this rare? I don't think I've ever seen one before.

It's not the rarest, scarcer in grade. Your's presents well.

 

I think #3 is tougher.

Both are good early Baker covers, imo, and I agree that 3 is tougher than 2.

 

Nice looking copy, gadzukes. Now start collecting the rest of the Bakers!

Resistance is futile!
