It’s bizarre, but I can’t get any takers for this rare Batman poster on eBay. I’ve run the auction twice and not gotten any bids, so now I don’t get reimbursed for the charges of listing it twice. I’m really surprised no one’s bidding on it.
It’s a poster that was created only for a Campbell’s giveaway, and 100 of the 125 posters were given to young kids and are presumably in bad condition. This poster is so rare that I cannot FIND it on the entire Internet. Even Campbell’s web site didn’t show the poster when they ran the contest. At the FallCon auction where I got it, the bidding was fierce. I figure I overpaid in the end and wouldn’t make the money back if I sold it, but that was fine with me since it was for charity. Still, I didn’t think there wouldn’t be any takers.
So now I’m selling this thing with a starting price of only $20. I hadn’t promoted this auction here, and maybe in retrospect I should have, but I don’t really want Monitor Duty to become “Michael Makes A Buck Central”.

Also, 25% of the auction price will go to Operation Gratitude, a charity I’ve been supporting for the last two years.
My husband has two of them – framed and ready to hang, if I’d let him. I’m sure a lot of other folks are adults who won that poster – sorry about that…And, BTW, that Batman is abysmal art, JMHO.
