Last week an unusual piece of original Edward Gorey artwork was sold at auction. It is notable because it is one of the pieces from the 1974 Graham Gallery Exhibition (see my postings from June 30, and July 3 & 6, 2009) . The piece was listed on the original checklist as "#17. A Dull Afternoon". As you can see, it is quintessential Gorey! Unfortunately, I did not win the bidding for this wonderful piece of art, but it is nice to see another image from this important show.
