[MOPO] Hershenson April Auction

[Greg Douglass]

Sigh.

There was a "Wasp Woman" half sheet that I was ready to go to any financial lengths to get at Sunday's auction. I glanced at the ending time before I went out for a hike with my wife and thought, "Wow, 3:30? I can do that easily!" 

3:30 CENTRAL Daylight Time. Not PDT, not EDT. I ran into my office and the poster had gone for a price that I would have matched. D'oh! The thrill of victory, the agony of defeat.

The big surprise to me was the 1959 Hammer "The Mummy" half sheet that sold for 3K+. What made this title take a sudden spike?
