1. About 20 random Palladium books
2. A signed and sealed case of Rifts: Ultimate Edition (not the gold limited edition but the regular one)
3. Two printer's proofs of Rifts: Ultimate Edition (limited edition, but un-numbered - one signed by Kevin as being such)
4. The original artwork for the cover of Robotech: Southern Cross
5. Some Recon artwork
6. An Akira original animation cel
7. A number of Robotech original animation cels
8. A number of quasi-random original animation cels
9. A ton of Vince Martin and Kevin Siembieda original art
10. The original art for the Mark V APC in the original Rifts Main Book
11. About five shirts (various)
12. Some Scott Johnson original art - several pieces (including the gargoyle borg piece from Warlords of Russia)
13. Several prints from various sources (Scott Johnson, Kevin Siembieda, etc).
14. At least one of each book cover that was for sale.
15. A Heroes of the Megaverse print that was donated to a silent auction.
16. An animation cel that was donated to a silent auction.
17. #1 of 50 of the Arzno maps.
18. I *think* #1 of 50 of the Maps of Dyval and Hades - my bid was sixty bucks but I had to leave before the auction was done.
19. A (*beautiful*) large painting of a dragon - done by Kevin Siembieda
20. A set of the small glasses.
21. The set of misfit toys from Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
22. One other piece of art that I won't mention until the deal is done. It's a DOOZIE though.

At first it was killing me to give up the coat, and then I saw how much she really loved it, and I knew I'd made the right decision. I'm glad she loves it and is so happy with it. I ask for only one thing, if it's not too much...

Can I get a picture of the shadowbox?

I have my Palladium 20th anniversary jacket too but that has my name embroidered on it and you'd look funny being called Maryann :)

How much for the full set? I don't plan to wear 'em...I plan to have 'em framed or put into a shadowbox.

You better believe it. She was practically beaming the rest of the weekend. I think her exact words when she found out Subbie had outbid her was, "I'm gonna kill em', I'm gonna find him and kill em'!" :lol:

That was awesome of you to donate it GP, and awesome to take your bid off Sub. She even got it signed by Kevin before she left. :)

There was a big section on the other side of the register where a ton of artwork was. I also had my Keith Parkinson painting and my Kevin Long painting up for sale up there as well.
