OK here is the skinny on which philotoons are available as originals and which are available as signed prints only.
#1; Hoh Man. This appeared in Alpinist #27. Prints only the original is in the Ydpl8s collection.
#2; Generic Crap Bivy. This is available as an original with a second 'toon, Bivy Excavation, on side B.
#3; What do you mean no more rope? Available as a single original.
#4; Sh#t and Pitch. Available as a two-fer with a side B 'toon called Butt Breath. pic posted later.
#5; Tuna Can. Available as a single original.
#6; Say What. Available as a two-fer original with Charmin Gully on the flip side.
#7; Another fine mess. Available as a two-fer original with Philbert's Dilema on the flip side.
#8; Philbert's dilema. Available as a two-fer original with Another Fine Mess on the flip side.
#9;Hueco Thanx. This appeared in Alpinist #39. Available as a single original.
#10; Cajun Style. Available as a single original.
#11; Indecent Exposure. This was the illustration for Matt Samat's story in Alpinist #31. Available as a single original.
#12; Sleep Tight. Available as a single original.
#13; Yin Yang aka Philbert's Dilema redux. This appeared in Alpinist #34. Available as a single original
Signed prints are being offered at $10 each and/or 3 for $25. Though the kidcormier graciously offered $25 for just one.
Originals should be auctioned for a fair amount more. I am thinking an opening bid of $75 for a single and $150 for doubles seems about right.

Mike what do they do with the staples once they take them out of your back? If someone will cough up $250 fer one of Tricouni's old Uwall pins imagine what they will pay for ironwork that's been nailed into YOU!

My opening bid of $250 USD is on a guided Grade V climb in The Black Canyon of Gunninson with Jim Doninni - proceeds to be split between Blitzo and Big Mike
Luke Cormier is managing the Petzl rope guard Edge Protector auction on my behalf
Edit: My stepfather had multiple myeloma, so I am very familiar with this horrible disease, much sympathy to you Blitzo ....

Nice one bmacd. If you get a guided Black Canyon grade V and a Donini dinner for $250 consider it a bargain to tell your grand kids about.

Philo- Yes sir, I am keeping track. I have a list of donors,
The PayPal account is at 438.04, and a 50 dollar private donation.
The list of donors so far is,
Jon Beck -30
E6 100
Crunch-50
Anon?-40
Kennyt-50
Friend-50
Russ-65 for The salsa donated by pocoloco
Cowpoke-50
Hamie Mutch-55 for a tshirt donated by Dave aka Squamish Climber
I will be sending auction donors prints for their items as well.
I know the kid won an item but since I have yet to receive funds I have not added that item to the list yet.
I actually had a very busy day today with three appointments and Bruce k visited as well as my mom. I was so tired I passed out on her, and slept for a good 3 hours.
Ps ya Bruce! You better get on some multis before you head down there!!

Scrubber - nice bid on a hard to find item - Luke will set you up with the rope guard, something I am sure you will make good use of
Mike - the Black Canyon bidding has only just begun, I am sure there will be many bidders - and It's Doninnis discretion as I don't think this is what he had in mind - but I'm serious ....
Hey How about an Auction for Cosmic !!
