My haul at the auction today
I spent a total of $24 (after taxes and Buyer's premium) on two box lots. I might sell some of this on ebay, so if anyone here is interested in anything, lemme know, I hook you up

The one Eros magazine is the last photoshoot ever for Marilyn Monroe. And yes, she is nakey in it. Thought it would be best not to post that though, lol.

And now for the bundle of prints! These are cool! All frame ready (obviously not lithos or anything, but nice). I LOVE the Miro and the Notre Dame one.

And some more! Weeee!!! LOL, this is only the first box!

Also in this box, but not pictured, three coffee table books (giving to maman)- Goya, Chagall, and Manet (the Goya one has a note in it from the publishing company to some guy, cool!). Also a whole bunch of music stuff, which I will promptly dump on my friend, who is a music teacher. Muahahaha!

Next box. The first one is all in German, can anyone tell what the title page says?

The third pic is a nice copy of the Idylls of the King...with the cover ripped off

And the final stuff. I love the Toulouse-Lautrec prints

Then what I had been waiting for, the big ass book o'art Puurty.

And inside the front cover, I found the newspaper article. Cool!

And the final pic - for MJH - my beautiful bookcase is starting to fill up!

Someone is selling the set of Eros book on their ebay store for almost $400. LOL, I don't think they are worth that much.

One heck of a deal when you consider its all in one lot!

As soon as I get them, I'll sort and send pics. Then I'll categorize, and see which ones I'm missing.

Oh, and I did raise my max bid.........but only $5.........
