The December 9th, 2010 auction at Bloomsbury Auctions is getting more press than usual for an Edward Gorey themed auction. This is to a large degree because of the fur coats which will be on the block this week.
There have also been several interesting Gorey discussions on line because of the added attention brought on by this auction. On one blog: http://ozandends.blogspot.com/2010/12/fur-coats-on-sale-size-extra-large.html , the topic of Edward Gorey as a "cult figure" has been addressed. What constitutes a cult following as opposed to just being popular?
Oh, and by the way...Thursday December 9th, 2010 is my 50th birthday. Maybe I need a birthday present from the auction. Hmmmm....
