Bid now, Bid often

Bid now, Bid often

[jimlee]

Been struck by a stomach flu or a cold and food poisoning or something worse. Definitely had a cold and then the vomiting began. Back to nearly 100% now, thank God. Nothing like being curled up in bed with a bucket by your side.

Anyway, now that I got you all in the mood. Here is a link to several auctions to benefit the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund.

CBLDF ebay auctions

For those of who may not know, the CBLDF fights on behalf of first amendment protecting our right to freedom of speech. In the real world, that often translates into better protecting the rights of your local retailer to sell the broad range of comics they want to and more importantly, protecting all of us in our rights to freedom of speech and freedom of expression.

Whether it is political dissent or drawing comics about socially sensitive topics, the CBLDF is our industry's only organization standing up for the collective whole. Like the title says, bid now, bid often. The money goes to the worthiest of causes.

knowing the market price for this one, i am sure that my max bid will probably be beat in a couple of minutes. but what the heck.

i guess i will just have to stick with my signed DC Super Heroes #1 (Batman #608 RRP cover) =)

believe elad is part of the msn group. great going elad! while bidders would usually want the winning bid to be low, hope it goes a little bit more! ;-)

Oh ick, sorry to hear you were sick, Jim. Glad you're on the mend! I know a few folks out CA-way suffering from the dreaded lurgy, maybe it migrated from NY, where we were both laid up through much of April into early May.
