Bliss (a rare large 1957 painting), Chuck Arnett (the painting exhibited in the 1979 Fey-Way Studios gallery the night Robert Opel was murdered), and many exceptionally scarce pieces of queer ephemera, including Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, Club 82 NYC, and many other impossible-to-find artworks, most of which have not been offered in decades.
