seank Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I didn't realize WR #3 was so scarce. Robert and I had an interesting and near heated discussion as to the price for all three books. It was actually quite fun since I think we were both aware of the game we were playing and in the end we made a deal. I paid dearly, but not quite the 3X guide at which he had priced them.

seank Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 With WR #3 being as ultra scarce as it is, you might just have the highest grade copy in existence. (BTW, I just checked and saw that Beerbohm still has those books listed in his eBay store...) Not likely. I just checked and there's a 7.0 out there. The bottom edge on this copy probably keeps it under that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comicnoir Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Really? Damn, that's even on my saved search list. I got lucky. It was a 3 day auction that ended at a weird time. The last copy I saw was on ComicConnect, slabbed 4.0. It went for 3X what I paid for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JvR11 Posted June 24, 2011 Author Share Posted June 24, 2011 (edited) This was a nice Wartime Romances....it went higher than I expected...but it was a VF. Guess I keep looking WartimeRomances3 Edited June 24, 2011 by JvR11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGA_Fan Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 This was a nice Wartime Romances....it went higher than I expected...but it was a VF. Guess I keep looking WartimeRomances3 Normally, it's hard to trust raw grades on eBay, for VF's generally arrive as F+ etc. I was looking at a bunch of books by that seller because he was offering a vast amount of GA romance books lately. But check out his Feedback report. A lot of Negative's and Neutrals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flex Mentallo Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 A very long time since I added a Matt Baker romance comic to my collection, but this is one I couldnt resist. It's an outsized issue which gives his artwork plenty of room to breath, and there are four masterfully rendered stories inside. As for the cover, I think it's one of the best in the run. As for scarcity? Maybe they are easier to track down if you live in America and can get to visit shows, but this is the first copy I've seen in 20 years of searching!

29dukedog Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Very nice book, Michael. That seller has really been working through an exceptional romance collection. I wonder if we've seen the end of it, yet. Although, I don't think he's had any Cinderella Love, or Going Steady, or True Love Pictorial. I may have missed some, though. I haven't added much to my Baker romance collection lately, either. Although, earlier this year, I did finally upgrade my TLP 11 to a copy more in line with the condition of the rest of my run. That's a tough nut, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
