As much as I have enjoyed this round of ebay sales, I am shutting ‘em down again. The last of them are up for sale at this link.

The economic slump made for some bargains, so congratulations to all the winners.

I not only enjoy selling things on ebay, but I enjoy buying, and I found a couple of very nice books. Alas, selling can be really time-consuming, and I am falling behind on shipping.

Last week, I found some bizarre stuff from long dead projects in my files. The one and only page from Fortune’s Friends that did not make it onto the funeral pyre is up for auction. With the money from this sale, I intend to do something in the party hearty department. I will not pay a bill with it. I will do nothing sensible with it. I will buy chocolate covered strawberries. Or a cookie.

Many of the best, early pages from A Distant Soil were in storage, as well as a load of Book of Lost Souls and Orbiter art, and a small stash of miscellaneous pages from a number of mainstream projects from which I was sure I had nothing left. Annoying, since a private buyer had come to me asking for some of those pages, and I went through everything in the house and told him I did not have them!

Anyway, here’s a really nice A Distant Soil page up for sale.

The cover to A Distant Soil Volume I graphic novel is still available, and yes, I can do layaway.

I will continue to do private sales, and I am scheduled for two comic conventions next year, but no more ebay for awhile. Thanks to all my noble patrons for your support!

As many of you know, I will be giving a short lecture on Tolkien art on Sunday. I have received permission from a number of well-known Tolkien artists to use and discuss their work in the show. Some of these pieces are unpublished works. Cross your fingers, and pray the Power Point works. I’m prepared if it doesn’t, but lectures on art work best with, you know, pictures.

I’ll be showing work by Walt Simonson, Kinuko Craft, Donato Giancola, Ian Miller, Ted Nasmith, and more.
