Name the most you'd pay. We bid for you, just enough to stay in front, like eBay. Nobody sees your max, not even Captain Nemo.

How the bidding works (the short version of the Articles)
  • The first bid starts a 13-day clock. When it hits zero, the top bidder wins.
  • Enter your max. The price only climbs as far as needed to keep you in front, so you may win for less.
  • Each bid has to beat the price by a small step. Ties go to whoever bid first.
  • Some pieces carry a reserve, a minimum price kept secret. If bidding ends below it, the piece doesn't sell. The box tells you if it's met.
  • A bid in the last 5 minutes resets the clock to 5 minutes. No sniping.
  • Win, and we email a pay link. You have 3 days to pay. Pickup is at the South Loop dock.
  • A bid is a promise to buy. Please bid only if you mean it.

Description

A framed and matted print done in the style of a 1960s romance comic, Ben-Day dots and all. On the left a long-snouted, animal-headed man in a blue suit and tie thinks he can see her whole head and there’s nothing in it. On the right a blonde with a long snout, red lips, pearls and a red polka-dot dress, a tear running down her cheek, thinks she’d rather walk twenty miles on rusty razorblades than give up on her precious Hubert. Skyscrapers and red curtains fill the window behind.

Signed in the plate at the lower right with a monogram we can’t read, with a copyright line beneath. Black frame with a white mat, behind glass (expect reflections in the photos).
