I spent many days and nights drawing these, and this was the first time these beloved originals were formally exhibited\u00a0together. It was fun watching people circulate through the display, eyeballing the work up close. Over the years, I\u2019ve turned down several buy offers\u00a0because I wanted to present them together at a special occasion like Worlds Beyond.<\/p>\n<p>Now that I\u2019ve done that, these eight originals are\u00a0now available for sale, and I suspect some of them\u00a0will sell very quickly.\u00a0All prices include shipping within the continental United States.
