“CAPS is happy to announce the list of artists whose work will be represented in our first round of offerings on eBay this coming Thursday, March 6. All of our Stan & Sharon Sakai Benefit Auctions will be sold under the eBay seller name of “CAPSauction” – http://www.ebay.com/usr/capsauction , and each will be a ten-day auction.”
Starting tomorrow, there will be an Auction online for some great artwork to help out Stan Sakai’s family.
“For nearly 30 years, Stan Sakai’s Usagi Yojimbo has set a high-water mark for creator-owned comics.
Stan’s wife, Sharon, has battled a debilitating illness for some time; after an extended hospital stay and convalescence, she is now back home, but her condition requires 24-hour care and medicines that cost more than their insurance covers.
CAPS, the Cartoon Art Professional Society, has decided to provide whatever assistance we can, starting with an ongoing auction of original art. 100% of the proceeds will go directly to Stan & Sharon to help pay their ongoing medical expenses.
Starting Thursday, March 6, the Comics Art Professional Society will hold a series of original art auctions on eBay to benefit the Sakais. The auctions will last for 10 days, with new sets of art up for bid each Thursday under the seller name “CAPSauction.” (On Ebay at http://www.ebay.com/usr/capsauction)
