Con Or Bust: Helping Fans of Color Attend SFF Cons

Item Name: Signed Buffy the Vampire Slayer "Sunnydale High Yearbook"
Description: Hardcover copy of the Sunnydale High Yearbook by Christopher Golden and Nancy Holder.
Autographed by Buffy the Vampire Slayer cast members James Marsters (Spike), Amber Benson (Tara), Emma Caufield (Anya), Tom Lenk (Andrew), Julie Benz (Darla), Danny Strong (Jonathan), and Angel cast member Andy Hallet (The Host). All autographs are personalized to "Lisa," so if that's your name it's like an added bonus. Or alternatively, you can start going by "Lisa" so that you match your new yearbook. Some of the autographs also include cryptic notes like, "Food Rocks." I would be happy to tell you the stories behind these personalizations as an added bonus of bidding, but you'd probably die of boredom.
Auction Ending: Midnight EST, 13 April 2009
Notes: I'll ship anywhere, but I'll probably choose the cheapest shipping option. That's just how I roll.

Item Name/Description: Survivor by Octavia E. Butler
Starting Bid: $20
Auction Ending: March 31, 2009 at 10pm PT
Notes: Signet mass market paperback, 1979. Fwiw, this version currently sells for $50 or more (up to the seemingly-ridiculous $600!). I do understand Ms. Butler was not satisfied with the published book (because I asked her about it years ago), which resulted in it not being reprinted in recent times.

Condition: pretty good, no spine crease or roll, cover has small crease in lower right corner and a bit of scuffing and edgewear. Possibly unread.

I'll try to put up links to pics over the weekend, if desired. Feel free to ask if you have questions and I'll update the post with more info. (Update: Link to pics)

Shipping: I'll pay. If the winning bidder wants it insured, we'll work it out.


Reminder: Please keep bids in a single thread by using the "reply to" comment option; this notifies the previous high bidder that they have been outbid and keeps there from being multiple conflicting bids.
