Sometimes I get busy and simply don’t have the time to publish a preview of each and every auction, particularly ongoing, monthly, online-only auctions (though I list everything of relevance that I am aware of in my monthly auction calendar feature). This site and my efforts here are all done essentially pro bono (any advertising revenue collected does not come close to offsetting my costs accrued over the years), so I’m always a bit surprised when dealers get demanding with me for overlooking whatever for profit endeavor that they expect me to promote for them (gratis), especially when they’ve never made any contribution to the resource that is this website….

A good friend of mine is offering a piece for sale on eBay that I’ve always been a fan of, so I thought I would provide a mention here for others in this art market who might find it of interest. I’ve always been attracted to movie car props, and this is one of those cars that is immediately identifiable to fans of contemporary cinema – the Chevy Nova from Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof.
