Can't wait to see some of the cards in this collection. Ed, I think you still have a few cards, correct ? If so, Hopefully someone will take them before the Chicago Show. I know you will have a lot on your plate this next week. Take care, Thanks again everyone! Paul

Hi Everyone! Ed, if you still have the last 7 cards from this chest by the time Chicago rolls in, please bring them to the show. Anyone else that would like a last call- there are only 7 left to make this chest a sellout. Please let Ed know asap. Thanks a million, Nonsports people are the best! Take care, Paul

7 cards left. Anything reserved in the next few days will ship next week after I recover from Chicago.
That's a cool Robin, has a 1966 Topps Norm Saunders look to it.

Got mine, sorry can't scan, but quite happy.
Got a B/W Indian Chief with colored war paint and beads by Kevin O. Anderson and a color Sheriff pointing rifle by Randy Martinez. Wasn't intended, but these look right together.
Also a B/W Shazam by Michael Reisner and a color woman's face in profile by Jennifer Janesko. I really like the Janesko, but I can't tell if I am supposed to know the character. Looks a bit like JLo or Jolie, I'm sure it's not though.
Thanks guys.

I picked up my 3 cards from Ed at the Chicago show yesterday. I also bought 2 Treaure Chest of Art sketches from Paul at his table (2/$25).
The 3 I got from Ed Conan saying "Crom!" b & w by Michael Beazley Thor color by Nathan Ohlendorf (Very Katie Cookish type sketch, nicely done) Alphabet by Jason Adams Linoleum block stamping. I know Jason looks in here and I'm not going to say anything mean, but these stampings, while art, do not fit in the realm of sketch cards.
The 2 I bought from Paul: Abe Lincoln the Gillman from Hellboy by Bruce Gerlach in b & w Green Lantern in color by Lance Sawyer, my favorite of the bunch.
Look I get that what I do isn't traditional for "sketch" cards, I get that it's not exactly everyone's cup of tea.
But allow me a moment to explain why I do it. I do it so normal people with normal jobs can have a cool little piece of hand crafted art for a pretty reasonable price. There are some fantastically awesome mini-masterpieces out there that can fetch hundreds of dollars on the secondary market. My intent to to counter those awesome pieces with neat little pieces.
I love to create. Everything I create is by hand, cut, printed, inked, etc. Nothing is a print done at kinkos, nothing is done digitally or mechanically.
I want to be able to do something different, something neat, and something for everyone. Sorry I didn't do sketches of big boobed super heroes because there are plenty of those out there for you guys.
Keep in mind, all the artists did these cards to benefit a charity. Something of which I a personally proud to have contributed to.

Hi Jason, you take the criticism well, and while I wasn't too happy with the alphabet, I did like the robot I got last year better. I am happy to see you doing something different for the next series. I think it's good you aren't doing big-breasted super heroines, the nice thing about the Treasure Chest project is you can do anything. The most charming sketch I received is called "The Dreamer" by Bruce Bolinger, of an old guy in a smoking jacket with a pipe. Not a comic character or super hero. You're obviously creative, so have fun with these.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Don Norton,
