Some nice classics there.

Do you think they will sell?

My favorite: Dragons Fighting, and Kitiara because I loved the original DL series of books.

It's at least the second time they put these up. Same prices as before. I am not an art expert, but considering that Parkinson's Queen of the spiders and Caldwell's Ravenloft art are up for $7,000 each, these paintings seem way overpriced. *Especially* the Gamma World painting ...

The Gamma World one is especially over-the-top.  The last time it was posted at $24,000 and didn't sell, so this time the seller must feel it will somehow sell at $30,000.  That's kind of bizarre; I can't imagine anyone paying that much for a Gamma World painting.  Last time they had the Queen of Spiders cover up for auction, but they pulled it.  Perhaps they received a private offer.  That would been a cool one to have.

Ah, there it is, same price as last time, and still too high IMO.

How can you authenticate something like that though.  Id be so paranoid and definately wouldnt trust just a signed letter that its original.
