Nice but pricey.

Maybe we could bid cubits . . . ;)

The high end quote works out to $100 ea. but only a few can afford that times 60 pieces.

I hope that Sci-Fi museum in Seattle buys some of this sort of stuff: it needs to be where it could be studied by future generations.

Didn't know there was a sci-fi museum in Seattle. Must remember to look into it when I finally get down that way again.

Jewels,

I thought it was like 20-something pieces.

$100 each doesn't sound bad at all. Not to sound smug but if I really wanted to, I could afford them, ... I'm just not sure I want to. The money isn't the issue ... but its really the issue if you know what I mean.

Guess its a question of how much my geekdom would surpass my financial wisdom.

If there was a place like a museum where they would go, I could probably justify the cost but I thought there was about 24 drawings, which makes 6000 bucks a less attractive deal.

All my best,


Russell

Come on PowerBall.

Powerball would be fun, wouldn't it?

I counted 60 pcs. by including the blueprints in the count.Exceptional archive of over 35 original pen and ink, pencil, marker, and tempera concept art designs plus, 25 blueprints in various sizes on artist’s illustration paper, all elaborating nearly every design aspect of spacecraft, suits, landing and exploration craft, weapons, etc. for the 1978 science-fiction TV series Battlestar Galactica

OK, its important to read the description.

Also important to note that there is an 18% premium on top of your bid. That's a quick extra $1000 on top just for the fun of winning the auction.
