The Collector in FATHER GEEK just can't resist passing on this information. This will be an A1 prime investment collectible down the line geeks, take the word of a man who has made his living since 1969 buying - selling - trading just such items. Imagine ALL the autographs of ALL the major CAST and CREW (we're not taking 5 or 6 names here, but dozens) on a single item. What would a STAR WARS (77) script signed in a like manor bring, or THE WIZARD of OZ, or GONE WITH THE WIND, or KING KONG (33), FRANKENSTIEN, DRACULA, CASABLANCA, CITIZEN KANE? This film will rank with those down through time. Think about it... then jump into THIS auction with both feet. Nothing on E-bay has even come close to this highly desiriable collectible/art object. It's a truely ONCE in a lifetime item and opportunity. REMEMBER the TIME listed below is NZ time and don't forget that pesky International Date line out there in the South Pacific off NZ's shores. Do your homework, find out how and when to bid, and jump on this, we at Geek Headquarters are!

Cast and Crew Sign Book for Auction
It seems that PJ et all are doing something rather cool to gather some money together to help flood victims in NZ.
A friend working on LOTR said that the film production company had been passing around a hard copy of Lord of the Rings ( the large format version with Alan Lee's artwork) to be signed by ALL the cast and Peter Jackson and other KEY people. It turns out that the production have given the signed book to be auctioned off in aid of the victims of the recent flood in Queenstown.
A local radio station who are to host the auction have been advertising it. It is to be held at 11:00am this Sunday - the 12 December at the Memorial Hall in Queenstown itself.
If anyone is interetsed I guess they could contact the radio station in Queenstown called Resort Radio 99FM.
