Is there a market for Unabomber merchandise?

My pal Richard Titlebaum was at Berkeley with the real Unabomber, and Richard knew the real Unabomber. They both were Teaching Assistants or Assistant Professors. Really. Anyway, Richard (my friend, not the Unabomber) died about a year ago, and I am the Executor of his estate.

Richard was a painter. (Look at his web site if you wish: rtitlebaum.com) In the estate, I have a large, crazy-ish, exquisite painting entitled, "Unabomber." It's Ted Klusinski (spelling?), but it's beautiful. Painted by someone who knew Ted.

Plus, I have hilarious (profound?) entries in Richard's journals about the Unabomber, from when Richard first met him, and then years later, after Richard realized who this he really was.

Would this make a great Antiques Roadshow package? Other ideas? Please look at the web site (rtitlebaum.com), and communicate, if you have a thought. Cheers!
