"Believe in Duct Tape" by Jared Wong

The first item that I bid on in the 

Cancer Gets LOST auction

was ""Believe in Duct Tape"

by Jared Wong.

The concept is genius!

It is based on Miles' quote in the LOST finale:

"I don't believe in a lot of things, but I do believe in duct tape".

(screencap used with the permission of Cancer Gets LOST.)

The original piece is made entirely out of duct tape on

an 18" x 24" canvas and is signed on the frame.

"Believe in Duct Tape"

is currently being framed, so I am using

Cancer Gets LOST's photos from the auction listing. 

I'll update this post with photo of framed 

art when it is returned to me.

***UPDATE***
"Believe in Duct Tape" now framed!

Rittenhouse LOST Seasons 1-5 3 Case Incentive Card

I am very particular as to how my LOST trading cards

are stored.  I prefer to use clear acrylic screw-down

cases for both the autograph and costume cards

in my collection, as well as the 

ACEO sketch cards I have acquired.

  They provide greater protection

and security than the flimsier top loader.

There is one exception in my collection.

I have one graded trading card that is encased

in a snap-top shallow acrylic *box*

It is the only graded card in my collection,

though the collection in its entirety is mint/near mint.

Rittenhouse LOST Seasons 1-5 Trading Card Set 

included a very rare "Dealer 3-case Incentive Card".

Harold Perrineau signed the card and

Beckett Grading Services graded the card 9.5.

LOST Crew Shirt - Season 6

I recently added the third Season 6

Crew Tshirt to my collection.

The first two can be seen here and here.

The latest addition has a completely different

graphic on the back than any of the other

LOST Crew Shirts I have  acquired.

LOST Crew Shirt - Oceanic Stunt Team

I really love the behind-the-scenes stuff

included on the LOST DVDs, especially

when the crew is featured.

I am fascinated in knowing how the show was put together.

I have acquired various crew shirts from each

of LOST's six seasons, as well

as a few department crew shirts.

But I never had a shirt specific to 

the stunt crew.....until now!

"No Man Is An Island" by Julian Callos

One of the amazing original works of art

in the LOST Underground Art Show

was titled "No Man Is An Island"

by Julian Callos.

The ink, acrylic and gouache on watercolor paper

sold for $480.00

You can see all of the original works of art here:

My friend Alice/comixguru tweeted a couple of

months ago that "No Man Is An Island"

was available for purchase as a print!

I purchased the smaller size.

The 12" x 12" print is hanging in my LOST room.

Kate Sketch Card - Nathan Ohlendorf

I acquired as many of

Nathan Ohlendorf's LOST 

sketch cards in the 

"Poor Little _____"

series

as I could find several years ago:

Locke, 

Jin, Eko and Sawyer,

Hurley, Charlie, Desmond

I only just realized that my new

purchase is the first female of the group.

"Poor Little Kate"

She's been on the island without tweezers for too long.....

Silhouettes From Popular Culture by Olly Moss

Olly Moss has become one of my favorite artists.

I was first introduced to his work during

DamonCarltonAndAPolarBear aka

The LOST Underground Art Project.

"Locke's Secret" was the second print 

released in the 16-print series.

I also have the Locke's Secret Tshirt.

"LOST" was the final print released in

The LOST Underground Art Project - Series II 

I'm so proud to own both prints and they

are treasured pieces in my collection.

They show up often in photos of other 

collection items that I've posted on the blog.

I've since purchased 8 additional

prints (non-LOST) by Olly Moss and

was thrilled to hear that his

Gallery 1988 Show

"Silhouettes From Popular Culture"

would be compiled into a book.

It arrived this week.

I actually purchased two copies of the book because.....

John Locke and Ben Linus 

ARE INCLUDED!

I plan on framing these pages from 

one of  the books and displaying in my

LOST room.

Robert Kirkman. author of the "Walking Dead"

graphic novels purchased the original

silhouettes from the show.

But I am content with my copies -

they are THAT AWESOME!

Photos from the gallery showing of all of the

original framed pieces can be seen here:
