Dear Reader,
Does anyone know if the UY Sketchbook will be distributed thru our local friendly neighborhood comic book stores?

"UY Sketchbook--OK, I'm jumping on the sketchbook bandwagon. It's 24 pages, plus covers, signed and limited to 750, and contains preliminary drawings for covers, character designs, etc. Most, if not all, unpublished."
Thank you in advance for your information.
Best wishes to all,
go

It is $10, which seems to be the going rate for these things or at the lower end. It is limited to 750 copies, signed and numbered, with a little head sketch of Usagi.
With such a limited number, there is probably little chance of any of them making it to local comic shops, unless they are bought specifically at a convention for resale in a particular shop. Or if a shop picks some up second hand. Then again, I could be wrong...
I'm already picking one up for Steve, so if Stan has no objections I will extend my offer of help to another few people for the $10 price plus a few bucks for postage.
I'm not looking to make a profit, just to help out loyal Usagi fans.
Hey, if you'll visit the board before the con, could you get a copy for me to? I contact me on the board if you'll be able to get it, and will settle the deal. Thanks.
Send me a PM with your name if you want it personalized.
This is the last request that I'm taking for help in getting a sketchbook that I will - I'm about to leave for the westbound trip, and I'm currently up to 4 (5 including myself) so I hope Stan will understand I'm not buying them for ebay.
