Incidentally, Paul Greer and Jason Hickok wandered by the Studio this week, and took a look at the Box o' Xeroxes. Look for a report from both or either on what was to be found there.

(The stack actually grew by an issue, too, as Paul found one buried in the flat files.)

The idea of wandering around your studio and taking in both your
artwork as well as the pieces on your wall just leaves a smile on my
face.

I will give a full report when I get back from the Philly con, but seeing the pencil Xeroxes of various JB books were as incredible to look at as it was searching his flat files of original art. This is a worthy collection for any JB fan to have!

I'll also give a ringing endorsement of these Xeroxes. Very cool to see
and brought back some fond memories of reading these when they first
came out.

Paul and I literally looked at every page in the box! Once we started we
couldn't stop.

Paul and Jason with all their tales of cons, dealing with internet trolls and visits to the JB Manor, I swear they are the Frodo and Samwise of the JBF.

Where do we send proof of our donation amounts? Maybe I missed that info...?

You haven't missed it.

To any of the mods: Can one of you volunteer to get emails proving the donation and let us know who the winner is? That way we do not have to post on here the information.

Tim, Poe made a quick dash through the studio as my back was turned. So I can't make any claims of "seeing" him. Gwynn was curious to see us but would not engage. She did stay close by our entire visit.

Jodi, I plan on making a donation myself so I would recuse myself from being any sort of judge. Since it is JB's contest I defer to him for the rules.

Should we send donation proof to Byrne's art dealer, Jim Warden?

Can someone please tell us where to email our donation proof? I've talked to a few JBF members on FB who share the same concern... we would love to know!

Thank you :)

I can't speak for JB since it is his contest but he did say earlier in the thread he did not want any announcements about donations to be made until the 15th. We still have a week to go.
