More auction stuff: rare Serenity art print and a bunch o' patches

The next installment of my I-need-money-and-my-storage-space-back auctions includes something special: a rare art print of Serenity. OK, granted, pics of Serenity aren't terribly rare; she's a beautiful lady and people seem to like drawing, painting, crafting and LEGO-ing her. But this is one of only 100 "engineering proof" prints made of a John R. Mullaney piece for QMx that have never, to my knowledge, been offered for retail sale. Mullaney is, of course, the illustrator behind the amazing Serenity Architectural Cutaway Set QMx just released with its incredible level of detail. This is the same style, ink and watercolor, but this image isn't included in the set.
The print measures 11"x17", is hand-numbered 51/100, and does have a few minor flaws described in the auction listing. But you won't find many of these around; it's a beautiful work of art of our girl. Check it out!
Also up: a heap of Serenity patches of different styles and sizes. Ariel EMT patches, Alliance rank insignia patches, Independent patches, an Alliance flag patch, even Wash's Londino patch.
Both auctions end Sunday, September 19. Don't miss 'em!
Last day for the awesome CSTS charity auction: Dr. Horrible, Serenity, The Guild, Dollhouse stuff

Today's your last chance to win some amazing Can't Stop the Serenity auctions and benefit Equality Now. Up for grabs: a Serenity mini-poster signed by Joss Whedon, a Dr. Horrible poster print signed by Neil Patrick Harris, Nathan Fillion and Felicia Day, a copy of The Guild DVD signed by the cast, assorted fan packs of merchandise, more autographs, and even an amazing one-hour tour behind the scenes of the Dollhouse set with costume designer Shawna Trpcic. Check out the whole list here. It's down to the final hours so you'd best get over there.
Money raised from the auctions will be included in the CSTS 2009 Global Donation Total, which currently stands at US $128,000. Your bids will help CSTS to reach this year’s goal of US $150,000 raised for charity!
Also included: the set of chopsticks used (almost) in the movie that I won from serenitymovie.com back in the day.
Coraline stuff for auction and Neil Gaiman in a tub
Kids Need to Read announced that they're auctioning off some autographed items from Neil Gaiman's Coraline:
Neil has generously given KNTR an autographed copy of the original motion picture soundtrack of the big screen adaptation of his popular book, Coraline! As if that weren’t enough, he also donated an autographed Coraline t-shirt (adult size extra large)! Neil wrote a little note on the shirt that says, “Sweet Dreams”, along with his signature.
As always, proceeds go towards getting books on library shelves. Kids need to read!
Also, here's Neil and Amanda Palmer in a bathtub:
