Non-Musician Signed Books and Merch

Rizzoli's shipping department is terrible. No communication, long delays, etc. I've ordered from them 3x. Twice I had long waits with no shipping confirmation or tracking. Another they just forgot to ship it so after like 2 months I just cancelled.

New Irvine (Trainspotting) Welsh title>

1 per customer seems a little odd for someone whose print-runs are usually very large. Could be that - like with Porno- the hardcover print-run for this title will be a smaller one. Worth a punt even at £22 although he is a prolific tourer (and obliging) signer.

Skagboys was pretty good, albeit a doorstop of a book. Found a nice signed copy a few months back, and I'm considering collecting a signed run from him.

I've always been kind of ambivalent about him, myself, but I can think of less interesting oeuvres to take an interest - or invest - in, certainly.

"Trainspotting" was a great start, of course. Here's a tip for you: although it was a paperback original, approximately 100 copies of that first impression were actually casebound (i.e. hardcovers) intended for library distribution. Naturally, they were rejected - initially - by the very conservative Library Gods in Scotland (and probably England) as being too offensive for public consumption and so ended up....in a lucky bookseller's hands!

That would be a good one to kick off your collection!
