In 1984, Denoël published Sempé by French cartoonist Jean-Jacques Sempé in a first edition of 8,000 copies. It isn't commonly seen in the States. Sempé presented a copy to New Yorker art editor Lee Lorenz with a delightful pencil drawing of two men playing at checkers. Now that Lorenz's estate is being sold off, the book was listed on eBay and was sold this week.

Something funny happened here. The listing was ended early by the seller. The book was then relisted at $462. Possibly this was a price agreed upon in advance with the buyer.
