They’re truly all so excellent and there are SO MANY!!! So many that there were some I didn’t even remember seeing on the auction site (just from sheer volume of art to take in!!) like all of these incredible ones:

Photo of two postcards. Top: a beach scene with three cottages against a beautiful pink setting sun, Ed and Stede are sitting on the beach at the land’s end. Text on the card says GREETINGS FROM JEFF’S INN BY THE SEA

Bottom: a card all in green of Ed in an old timey diving helmet and suit and Stede as a keepers on, they are holding hands underwater while bubbles, some in the shape of hearts, float around them

Photo of two postcards. Top: Ed and Stede as an astronaut and alien on a colorful rainbow planet with rainbow rings, they are holding hands and walking on the ring of the planet together. The revenge is in the background in a sea of stars and text says THE GENTLEMAN ASTRONAUT in script.

Bottom: a night scene of a tent next to a campfire by a lake with mountains surrounding it

Photo of two postcards. Top: Ed and Stede as a mermaid on a beach. Ed has brought Stede books to read and it says WITH LOVE in a banner at the top of the card.

Bottom: a night time seaside scene of a little cabin in beachside woods, the moonlight peeking through clouds. Text on the card says SEA YOU

(And if you’re one of the winners of signed things from Australia and AoNZ, it’ll be a little longer, as they’re flying all around the world!)
