ModernLove Cancer Research Charity Auction


I got the following email today.

Hello,

I came across your blog while doing research on the Priest series. I am auctioning one for charity, #57, as part of my 5th annual auction in support of cancer research.

It is in my online catalog on page 71, lot #103:

As for the auction, it primarily focuses on 20th Century Design and Decorative Arts and is in its 5th year, with sales helping generate vital funding for cancer research and emotional support programs for those living with the disease. It is held in support of the Canadian Cancer Society, a portion of every sale will be donated to the cause.

The auction will take place on eBay, with items to be listed throughout the week of November 28th, with all listings to end in sequence on December 8th.

This year's collection includes works by Charles and Ray Eames, George Nelson, Eero Saarinen, Hans Wegner, Jean Prouve, Charlotte Perriand, and many more. As well, in addition to the Mark Gonzales Priest, I am offering some Supreme decks by Takashi Murakami, Larry Clark, and a miniature Puppy sculpture by Jeff Koons.

Thanks for your great blog, I appreciate your time and wish you all the best.
