The American Booksellers Foundation for Free Expression is selling an original illustration from Nathan Hale's forthcoming book Hale's Hazardous Tales: Donner Dinner Party (2013). I'm really not sure I want to know how the "Donner Dinner Party" relates to this illustration, but never mind. Bidding on eBay for this bookish mermaid ends Saturday morning.
Here's a poster promoting the Hale's Hazardous Tales: Donner Dinner Party from Mr. Hale's own website:
June 5, 2013 Update: In the comments section, illustrator Nathan Hale himself notes that the lovely mermaid drawing is not from the Donner Dinner Party book. The eBay listing was simply incorrect. (I wish I had a dollar for every time that happened!) Things here are starting to make some sense now.
Note: A silkscreen by Christoph Niemann from the same silent auction was shown here in yesterday's post.
