CCS students hold holiday auction

Center for Cartoon Studies Ken Dahl poster

The students at the Center for Cartoon Studies are auctioning off four posters to raise money to help pay for convention costs. The items up for bid, all included in one package, include:

Signed by Seth, An uncut sheet from the 1st CCS brochure. Seth designed and drew this large 2-sided sheet, and we have it uncut, straight from the printers. It’s 2-sided, full color, and has the original CCS brochure along with various postcards, bookmarks, etc, all included. It’s big, 25 x 38, but this is an item that’s hard to get a hold of and certainly would make any Seth fan a very happy person during the holidays.

Blank Diploma: This Ivan Brunetti design graced the diplomas handed out to the first-ever graduating class from the Center for Cartoon Studies. This copy is minus all the official “you graduated” writing, of course. This multi-color 11 x 17 screen-print is simple yet bold in design and exclusive to CCS. Writing your own name in at the bottom is not allowed.

Holiday Sale Poster: A Ken Dahl (Monsters) original winter poster that he screen-printed for 2006’s CCS holiday extravaganza. Shades of blue make this an elegant winter wonderland, infused with Ken Dahl’s own unique perspective on life. 22 x 15. (Pictured above)

Sammy/Anders/Kevin Poster: Sammy Harkham, Anders Nilsen, and Kevin Huizenga made CCS their 2nd stop on their joint book tour in February of ‘06. White and red screened onto green paper creates this visually stunning poster, and includes artwork from all three of this group of amazing young cartoonists. Stands out at a uniquely sized 11.25 x 23.25.

    Those are really gorgeous pieces. I do wish those were four different auctions—I couldn’t afford to bid on all four at once. Still, I hope they go for a large amount of money for this good cause.
