A proposito di questo venditore

Operating continuously since 2004, SIGNAL BOOKS & ART specializes in autographed fiction in collector's condition. We also have catalogs of Original Art and Comic Books/Action Figures. All books are 1st printings of the 1st edition, unless otherwise noted. All dust jackets are protected in a clear, acid-free sleeve. And 90% of our book inventory is autographed by the author, because SBA is located near Toronto, an international hub for author events. The original art retailed by SBA is primarily by Canadian artists of the early-to-mid 20C. Typically, the paintings are oil on board and presented in a period frame. Our inventory includes comic books - Silver, Bronze and Modern Age - in collector's condition paired with a related Action Figure on-card, many of which are housed in a Zoloworld display case. Regarding condition, at SBA we believe in full and frank disclosure. We describe objects conservatively and thoroughly so you won't have any unpleasant surprises. And you may rely on us to take care in packing your order so it will arrive as described. This has always been our practice at SBA because we grew tired of buying from dealers who lack the expertise or the willingness to fully describe flaws or who are purposely vague in their descriptions. Buy from us and put that aggravation behind you. We ship in sturdy boxes - NOT self-mailers or padded envelopes - and we take in packing all sales regardless of purchase price. Please browse our catalogs, including autographed first books, books signed by deceased authors, books signed and dated in the year of publication, Original Art and Comic Books with Action Figures.
