Some people need to lighten up.  The Blood auction is supposed to be fun.  What better place than Tucson to offer these "extraterrestrial" marvels?  


UFOology is hot right now with over a dozen series devoted to the subject on the cable TV channels.  Viewers cannot get enough of it. UFO material from the 50's and 60's is among the top performing  items in the collectables sector right now.  A decade ago, it was dinosaurs.

It doesn't matter if you believe in it or not; Some of this material has proven to be an excellent investment.

Take this sketch of a flying saucer being offered up on eBay for instance:

RARE RAY HARRYHAUSEN EARTH VS THE FLYING SAUCERS UFO SKETCH SIGNED ART 
AUTOGRAPH http://r.ebay.com/qwUlkI 

A mere $21,000.0 and it could be yours. It looks like there have been 5 offers on it.  I think the witness sketch in the Blood auction is way more exciting and there is no minimum bid. 

Then there is Lot 37 which attracted the attention of the scientific community.  It is made of 100% pure Enstatite aligned in sharp microscopic shards which could not occur naturally.   It even looks oriented.  It is informally referred to as the "Puckerite" for obvious reasons.  It doesn't get more alien looking than this!

Do not forget there is a specimen labeled as the Tucson meteorite in this collection of artifacts! 

Tucson, with all of it wackiness and oddities, is the perfect place for this kind offering.
