Nathan Hale's Mermaid Tales

The American Booksellers Foundation for Free Expression is selling an original illustration from Nathan Hale's forthcoming book Hale's Hazardous Tales: Donner Dinner Party (2013). I'm really not sure I want to know how the "Donner Dinner Party" relates to this illustration, but never mind. Bidding on eBay for this bookish mermaid ends Friday morning.
