Popular Post Sqeggs Posted October 30, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2018 I believe this is the last Baker romance cover St John published. The cover had originally been intended for Wartime Romances 17. The contents are reprints. Tough book. Never seen a high-grade copy.

It is a very cool book, one of the great robot covers, but I wouldn't call it scarce. It is simply one of those books that folks rarely part with and therefore hard to find. Patience. One will show up for you. FoggyNelson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a great insight, Richard, and goes to what I was getting at early on when I said to @comicjack that I didn't want to be the one to lower the bar for Hall of Fame voting, so to speak. It's also what I take it @Point Five was getting at when he said some of the books he thought about he then realized nine guys on here had. I've wondered that about Police 109 in particular; is it that uncommon or just long-hoarded? I've seen it three times; bought two and one got away on eBay. So I'm not sure. Just musing in print.

I imagine Police 109 survives in much smaller numbers than Brick Bradford 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Gordon 5 is the toughest, since it probably doesn't even exist, despite rumors over the years of people having seen a copy. You can't get any tougher than not existing! Never even seen this one!! Very cool!! I do have that Flash Gordon 5 though............JK hehe!! Can’t get any tougher than not existing i may have to borrow that line here and there haha!!

OtherEric Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I know at least 3 copies of this book exist. It's the only one of at least 9 Peter Wheat books in this small format that I know of that I've found a copy of, or even seen a copy for sale in the nearly a decade I've been looking. sagii, Larryw7, Sqeggs and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
