This is Treasure Magazine (not sure how it's pronounced in Greek) from Oct. 1947. The same that Matt Baker used for swipes - not this particular issue as far as I know. And ironically the cover image is from Aglug. 1947 Colliers magazine (not sure if a swipe or sold in 2 different markets?) Anyway, I thought if anyone would appreciate it Bakers fans would . . .

I've noticed so many of these books have Colletta, Pike and other amazing artists. Hidden gems . . .

How is this not attributed to Baker? Those are his faces, especially the guy . . .

I've seen a couple of early 50s Sweethearts that were pretty good, one by Baker's inker and this one. Charlton sci-fi also had few stand out covers (mostly Ditko), and a few Crime and Horror. Come to think of it, basically before the flood described above Charlton seemed to have about as good a record as any of the 2-bit comic producers of the time . . . Meanwhile I guess I should start listing those 60s Charlton Romance books soon!

eBay auction isn't great for rare books - if the right people don't see it there's no bidding war and it can go for cheap. If you happen to be the one who discovers it . .

Just got a stack of Romance (some pretty low grade, but hey, complete and awesome) and noticed this one also has an amazing Kinstler inside front cover.

I should have kept mine! (Joking hindsight is 20/20 and I did ok). One of the most shocking covers of the era imho.

Just got this in, looking for comps is not easy! ~3.5. Never realized how rare this and #5 are!

Shameless plug department (and if this isn't allowed on this thread, please let me know and I will remove): Have this on a well known 'auction and buy it now' site - put it up because it got such a crazy price in last auction (from a different well known auction site) that I had to list it. Missing back cover, front cover detached, missing a chunk from last story page. Crazy times . . .

That was one thought I had - it was slabbed and sent directly to Heritage for the auction so no time to show up . . . except Heritage shows it in their census bar . . .

Can someone clarify something for me: was tracking the TAR 41 because I have one. Blown away by price it got, but when I went to see data some things didn't seem jive. This grade doesn't appear when I search CGC census, the slab #comes back null, so what's going on? Can't imagine a fake 1.5 slab? Huh?
