Struggled to upgrade my 3.5 copy (bought raw six years ago). So far, this is the best I've been able to do. Scratches are on the slab.

That is high grade for this issue. Very nice!

Nice ones Steve. I just couldn't get in the same room with Bakers and LB Cole is even worse. I'm "on vacation" with them for a while. Been working on other books that are obtainable and fairly priced. By the way, is the Texan a "New Hampshire"?

I'm on the same page. It's unreal....especially Cole.

Wow!  Great scores. Particularly like the Hawk, although the NH Texan ain't too shabby either!

Coles have gotten crazy at the mid-grade level. I'm thinking as more copies come to market, prices will come down.

Back in 2009, I went to an estate auction and these were in a box.  I still have some but most have moved on.  My best Baker find ever in one location.  What's your best

Baker find?

You're on fire! Have you completed the whole Baker Texan run?

No, not even close.

I'm sure you'll eventually track them down.

Maybe the toughest to find is the Texan 3D. I can't seem to find a scan of my copy. It's a VGish raw. Never seen a high-grade copy and there are no copies on the census. I don't even see it listed on GCD, although it may be there somewhere.

That is truly an incredible find.  I have been actively buying Bakers since 1992 but that easily beats any Baker finds I have had over the years.

Wow, now that is an estate sale! I love the Junior just thrown in with the Bakers. Is this just part of the box? What else was in there?  :whistle:

I haven't seen this one...only the Hawk 3-D...please find it!
