"I’ve incorporated a fundraising component into this Hake’s auction that is especially meaningful to me and my family. I’ve selected several original works of art from my personal collection, and 100% of my proceeds from the sale of these specific pieces will be donated to four nonprofit organizations that are close to our hearts:
The Center for Cartoon Studies
The HERO Initiative
The Berkshire Humane Society
The Berkshire Art Association
I’m hopeful that this charitable aspect of the auction, together with the breadth and quality of the material being offered, will resonate with collectors and readers alike. It’s especially gratifying to be able to share pieces from my collection while supporting organizations whose work I value deeply."
"I have been a fan of Ed's work since I started collecting and was lucky enough to work with Ed Hannigan since the early 2000s, and over time our professional relationship grew into a personal friendship with Ed and Heidi. During those years, I was fortunate to acquire a number of pieces of Ed’s art that were meaningful to both of us and that I continue to treasure. Having also worked with The HERO Initiative to help Ed and other creators during times of need, I’m especially pleased to include this unique piece in the fundraising portion of this auction. It is a wonderful reminder of Ed’s extraordinary talent, our friendship, and the importance of supporting the artists who have given so much to the comics community."
