comicnoir Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I was shocked at the price it realized. I am keeping my 4.5 copy. It's a book definitely coming into it's own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohickamabob Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 You gave it a good shot. That's a great book but it went for big money. I'd be okay with letting it go. Your copy is very pretty as is. (thumbs u How much did it sell for? I don't know how to search auction archives at the Comic Connect site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JvR11 Posted August 10, 2011 Author Share Posted August 10, 2011 Thanks for the support guys. I'm sure something else will peak my interest. I'd think this sale might also bring other copies to market. I'm not sure I'll be ever to upgrade my low grade copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

29dukedog Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 (edited) The phenomenal CC sale of that All Top 16 has evidently prompted someone to purchase a G/VG copy that Metro has had for a few months. I'd been watching it, and now it's suddenly gone. Almost bought it myself, but they only had a stock photo posted, and I was kinda just watching to see if they'd post an actual scan. So, probably after seeing the competition for the CC copy, someone broke down and bought it. Anyway, here's my own copy: (From the coveted "Yet to be discovered" collection.)

BB-Gun Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I almost purchased one of these a few years ago but I thought $150 was too much. I did purchase this one which looked like Baker art to me at the time. All Top 16 looks more like Baker but there is a similarity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohickamabob Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I did purchase this one which looked like Baker art to me at the time. All Top 16 looks more like Baker but there is a similarity. Sometimes it's tricky because I think Jack Kamen and Matt Baker were tag-teaming much of their work for the Fox jungle titles. Baker's stuff has that extra level of style panache and figure-drawing excellence that Kamen falls juuuust short of. One thing about your All Top comic that makes me suspect it's Kamen is the woman's feet. Where are they? Her front leg looks like it is planted into the ground, and the other foot is completely hidden. I think Baker would have found a solution to the "foot problem" of this image that was more anatomically inclusive. All of this is entirely my non-artist, layman opinion of course. And if it turns out this cover really is Baker, I'll gladly eat my words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
