Flex Mentallo Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Lucky enough to pick up this gem Well priced for such a rare book. I was tracking it and even bid, but then it slipped my attention and was gone. Glad you snagged it Jo!

Your TR9 has some great color to it. It looks like a very nice solid copy. I'm surprised you haven't been tempted to cracking the case. It looks even better than the ebay listing. Great scores!

comicnoir Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Lucky enough to pick up this gem Good one Joanna. That's the same copy that sold on CC a couple of years ago for $600.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicnoir Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 (edited) No wonder I can't win anything. Michael swoops down and they're gone. BTW did anyone here win the PR #18? One other person and I were leapfrogging over each other and I blinked and (s)he got it for $480.00. Edited August 13, 2011 by comixnoir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-Gun Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 (edited) I wondered what kind of car was in this Baker illustration. Could the cover be inspired by a Pierce Arrow ad? The car looks like a British MG TD which had suicide doors and a spare on back. Edited August 15, 2011 by BB-Gun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine all sorts of references feeding into Baker's work, and this looks too close to be merely a coincidence! What always amuses me about Bakers "teenagers" is they all look about 30!
