It wasn&#8217;t my first time at the Press Club rodeo, as back in 2011 there was an <a href=\"http:\/\/www.curls-studio.com\/curls\/?p=1198\" target=\"_blank\">international cartoonists event<\/a>. I really like the venue because it speaks so highly about the District and how news is covered. At one time before the cartoon events I took a tour when I planned the reception for <a href=\"http:\/\/curls-studio.blogspot.com\/search\/label\/AIGA%20FIFTY\" target=\"_blank\">AIGA 50<\/a>&nbsp;(which ended up being held at the National Postal Museum) in 2008.<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><br \/>\nThe event started out with a silent auction. Many cartoons were placed around tables on both sides of the room and people could write down their bids using their given number at check-in. Then Steve Artley lead the program as Master of Ceremonies and the live auction began.&nbsp;<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-yFVhMCx3IUg\/Uo7YTyUIiUI\/AAAAAAAADbs\/QnJ4xfHb7_Y\/s1600\/steveartley_cartoonscocktails2013.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"240\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-yFVhMCx3IUg\/Uo7YTyUIiUI\/AAAAAAAADbs\/QnJ4xfHb7_Y\/s320\/steveartley_cartoonscocktails2013.jpg\" width=\"320\" \/><\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\">One piece that was auctioned off was the original Steve Artley Halloween comic published in <i><a href=\"http:\/\/magicbulletcomics.blogspot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Magic Bullet<\/a><\/i> #7!
