Dear List,
Ruben has placed a spectacular specimen in the auction. It's
Information is extensive and got an entire page for itself.
This meteorite is unique because it has the distinction of having a starring
role in the upcoming motion picture called ³Heaven Strewn². Heaven Strewn
was filmed on location last year in Hollywood, L.A. and Trona California.

The movie premieres in March 2011. Included in the auction is a copy of the
movie Newspaper(6 were made) & a Meteorite Magazine with Ruben Garcia & his
Dog ³Hopper² on the cover - which also appeared in the movie.
The movie revolves around two separate ³gangs of thugs². The meteorite makes
its appearance when one of the members of the Mexican gang inadvertently
picks it up while in the desert - and throws it through the window of the
rival gang¹s vehicle. The rest is history as the meteorite is later
identified as a rare ataxite meteorite worth over $126,000. The L.A.
Chronicle newspaper picks up the story (LA Chronicle is a fictional
newspaper made for the movie and is included in the auction) and runs
headlines that read ³Local Man Discovers Meteorite Valued At Over $126,000!²
Items submitted together for auction:
1. 1,274 gram CD meteorite from movie
2. Meteorite Magazine from the movie
