Signed Collectibles,
Sweet Magazines
& Classic Cartoons
This week we have three
very limited, hard-to-find signed books; new issues of some
of our favorite magazines; a book and bonus DVD on a renowned British
animation studio; and much more. Of special note is a long-lost
warehouse find of sorts, The
Art of Jeffrey Jones Super Deluxe. These are the very last
copies of this special edition, and although these are not signed
or numbered, they are leather bound and include an extra 16-page
color section and an exclusive limited edition print
of four previously unpublished drawings. At half
the price of the original super deluxe edition, this
is an opportunity not to be missed -- and our supplies are very
limited, so act now!
