In the words of Lawrence Klein the founder of the Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art:

"I’ve incorporated a fundraising component into this Hake’s auction that is especially meaningful to me and my family. I’ve selected several original works of art and other cool & interesting pieces from my personal collection, and 100% of my proceeds from the sale of these specific pieces will be donated to four nonprofit organizations that are close to our hearts:

The Center for Cartoon Studies

The HERO Initiative

The Berkshire Humane Society

The Berkshire Art Association

I’m hopeful that this charitable aspect of the auction, together with the breadth and quality of the material being offered, will resonate with collectors and readers alike. It’s especially gratifying to be able to share pieces from my collection while supporting organizations whose work I value deeply."
