Raffle VII Continues ...
Also included in the raffle is a set of four Cerebus bookplates, signed by Dave Sim.
As a reminder, David Birdsong generously donated Carson Grubaugh's painting from an early version of The Strange Death of Alex Raymond. Note that the frame was damaged and there was no glass in it so he removed the art. The marks made by the frame can be seen below. 16 x 20 inches, acrylic on board.
Rules to win the Carson Grubaugh SDOAR Painting
Entries (or our equivalent of raffle tickets) cost $25 each and can be donated via lump sum to the Strange Death of Alex Raymond 2024 GoFundMe campaign through Monday, April 27, 2025 May 13 at midnight, PST. I will then randomly assign numbers to each entry and have Dave pull another Karnak, and I'll announce the winner on April 28, 2025 May 14, 2025. Cool? Cool.
