We're down to under an hour until the auction ends--much thanks to all who have bid, and of course I hope it is an epic battle at the end. This was more fun and far less nerve-wracking than auctioning a car online.

Just to clarify, the cartoon was drawn on a 9"x12" sheet of Bristol board, using an archival ink pen and watercolors. The visible board (inside of the matte) is now 8"x10.5". The outer edge of the frame is 11.5"x 14".

Hi all car cartoon devotees--this is the first cartoon I've ever auctioned. I have no idea what it will go for, but experts estimate somewhere between $800 and $350,000. I want to emphasize that this is the original piece--not a print.
