This is an amazing opportunity to have some absolutely wonderful art in your home, which used to belong to one of the all-time great SF authors. As we mentioned last night, Ray Bradbury’s art collection is being auctioned off. And here’s just some of the incredible artwork you could own.
Top image: one of 10 lithographs in “Ten Views of the Moon,” a collaboration between Bradbury and artist Joseph Mugnaini.
The auction ends at 5 PM PST today, or in just a few hours in other words. And most of the items are still at fairly low bids, or haven’t had their minimum bids met yet. That’s just impossible to believe. And just check out some of the stuff that’s up for sale:
