Capricon question

Know of anyone who is attending Capricon and might be interested in putting some Foglio stuff in the Art Show?

I've recently taken on the task of getting some of Phil and Kaja's limited edition prints out to conventions that take mail-in art. But it's already too late to do that for Capricon. And I think that would be a particularly appropriate place to start with.

There's still plenty of time to ship the art to the Chicago area, but it would need a local handler from that point.

Any suggestions?

ETA: Turns out it is NOT too late to mail the art in - I was looking at an earlier year's web site. (doh!)

So I'm no longer looking for someone else to carry them in.

You could come on my live interview with Phil & Kaja (http://terrania.us/biblio) this afternoon. Maybe you'd find a Chicago area fan willing to help in the audience there. You never know!

Mailing to Capricon

Hmmm. Confused here.

Either Priority Mail (most expensive), Parcel Post, or Fed Ex Home (costs about the sames as Parcel Post) will get there before the deadline of Feb 9 if you ship by January 30 (Wednesday).

Priority Post - 2 days
Parcel Post - 6 days
Fed Ex - 4 business days

I'm planning to ship tomorrow or Tuesday and do not expect any particular difficulties. Probably Fed Ex Home.

Um...well, Capricon might not be a good place to start. They're having organizational issues.

I think [livejournal.com profile] controuble was offering to help people with mail-in art the other day.

Hi - all the mail-in art for Capricon is coming to my house and I will be taking it to the con. I am agenting 8 artists already as well as collecting all the mail-in (because there's somebody home at my house during the day to accept it). I will be helping out in the art show as much as I can around my duties in the Internet Cafe since the person running it this year has never done one before. I am experienced - I run the WindyCon art show. If you have any questions feel free to email me - kerrylkuhn (at) comcast (dot) net.
