Science Fiction Cover Art Collection at Auction!

37 MinutesScience Fiction Cover Art On Sale
Here’s something to check out while waiting out the Irene!

Occasionally, there is an event that captures the imagination of the staff at Channel 37. Coming in September, the Heritage Auction people will be auctioning a huge collection of science fiction art owned by the late Jerry Weist.

The catalog is easily accessible by visiting the Heritage Auction website (www.ha.com), it takes about ten minutes to download the pdf version. It’s been on my computer for about a week, and I have only scratched the surface.

The collection contains original oil paintings used on Edgar Rice Burroughs covers, Virgil Finlay, and one of my personal favorites Frank Frazetta from a Bradbury cover (starting bid $28,000!)

Most of these covers were from the Golden Age of Science Fiction, the years that we at Channel 37 hold most dear. So we urge that you visit the site, download the catalog for your personal reference, and if you fell inclined, place a bid or two.

Alas, as poor struggling writers, even the lowliest of these fine covers are well beyond our humble means.

By the way, Heritage Auctions is not paying us to write this article.
