As I told you yesterday, I just came across some bondage art that was done for publication in Bound & Gagged. Since Lee and I are in the process of downsizing everything, even our storage units, I have decided to sell much of the art I find there (considerably more than I'm selling today), with the hope that buyer(s) will ultimately offer these works to the Leather Archives and Museum (LA&M) in Chicago, the soon-to-be home of the bulk of the Bound & Gagged archive.
Today I am offering four illustrations, three by an artist named Kevin Tindall whose work I liked a lot but who didn't draw for me nearly as often as I'd have liked before he too quickly disappeared from view (We kept his name on the masthead forever, hoping we'd hear from him again). I wish I remembered which issues these particular drawings appeared in, but I'd have to go through too many numbers of the magazine to find them. I may do that eventually, and may even put together an art/photo index one of these days; I'm feeling inspired to do that as a result of this find, but not today.
The fourth illustration is by the wonderful artist Titus. The issue number for this one was easier to find, since I knew at once that the plot-filled drawing was the inspiration for one of our very popular "What's going on in this picture?" fiction contests, inspired by Titus's drawings. In this case it was Fiction Contest 6. The picture first appeared in Issue 72 [Sept./Oct. 1999]; it appeared again with the winning fiction entry in Issue 75 [March/April 2000]. Tomorrow or Tuesday—as soon as I get my act together—I'll repost the drawing, with the winning entry.
Because all four illustrations were too big to scan or photocopy, I had to photograph them with my cellphone, so hope you'll forgive me if the angle distorts the pics a little bit.
The titles given to all four illustrations are mine, quickly made up a few minutes ago.

The Captive by Kevin Tindall. Illustration for "I guess being naked and in chains…", Issue 39, page 41. 11" x 14". Signed. Art stock. Unframed. $75 plus $10 shipping & handling in the continental U.S. Email me for foreign s&h fees.

SOLD
If you want either Issue 72 or 75, they will cost you an additional $50 apiece, plus $10 shipping and handling for either one, or both. I am charging this much for the magazines since they are from my personal archive; furthermore, they will have to be sent separately from the artwork. Again, these s&h fees are for the Continental U.S. only. Email me for foreign s&h fees.
All payments to be made into my PayPal account, [email protected]. Contact me first for availability.
I remember you running a contest with the drawings of 'Titus' a 'supply the caption' thing

Well, it looks like this comment is moot now, see the new post after this one
