A Massachusetts serial sex slayer’s crayon drawing of Jesus will be auctioned online starting tomorrow and could reap the cultured killer a handsome windfall while he awaits word on whether he’ll be showcased in a Manhattan art show next month.

Bidding for the Gaynor original, “A Righteous Man’s Reward,” will start at $15 at www.fortunesociety.org, an advocacy group for prisoners. Bay State laws don’t prohibit the latter-day Boston Strangler from profiting from his notoriety.
One true-crime memorabilia Web site is asking $5,000 for a 1982 oil painting of a clown by Illinois serial killer John Wayne Gacy.
Gaynor’s homage to the son of God is one of 287 inmate entries the Fortune Society will cull to 130 for its show titled, “Insider Art: The New Outsider Art.”
