An unpublished manuscript, begun by Dr. Seuss and completed by an assistant, is up for auction.

In a way the accompanying letter, criticizing the story, assessing the "brat book" market, and blaming his lagging correspondence on galufforschmords in his eyes, is the coolest part of the lot. (I don't know about you, but I'm totally using that one.)

The current bid is $1,611, which seems like a steal, assuming you're the kind of person who has $1,611 lying around.
