Have a Chance to Own Original Calvin & Hobbes Art
Posted by Ben Huber on Feb 3, 2012 in Comic Books |
Yup, you read that right. Only downside is it’s an auction. And for that you need money, and lots of it. But here’s the details: as I’m sure you know, Bill Watterson is a very private guy. He keeps to himself and very few pieces of original art from Calvin & Hobbes exist in the public realm. This is a 13″ x 10″ watercolor and ink piece that was once owned by Rick Marschall. Bidding goes until February 22nd online and is currently at $17,000. Worth it? That’s up to you.
There will be a final live session on February 23rd, and you’ll be able to bid live on it in person or phone/email/fax. Check out their site for the full rundown!
