Usagi Yojimbo DojoBoard

I will be on 3 panels this year:

Mark and Sergio Show

2:30-3:30pm
ROOM 8

Graphic Novels Sense of History
Saturday, JULY 25
5:00-6:00 pm
ROOM 8

Stan Sakai: 25th Anniversary of Usagi Yojimbo
Sunday, JULY 26
1:30-2:30pm
ROOM 8

We will also have a few freebies:
-The UY 25th anniversary poster
-A Comic Book Legal Defense Fund trading card, the original art for which will be auctioned at the CBLDF booth
-I did a watercolored book plate for http://www.paneltopanel.net/ , an online bookseller. Copies of UY Book 23 ordered from them will receive a signed (but no sketch) book plate. However, I will have a limited number of plates at the con with a purchase of UY 23. This is a service to Dojo members, so you will have to ask for it and give me your screen name. For those who will not be at the con, but have already ordered the book from their LCS--I will post a separate sign up later, and you can ask for a plate. Again, I will just have a few plates, so first come first served.

Will UY book 23 that includes the plate be HC ?

I don't know if I will have copies of the Book 23 HCs in time for San Diego. If they do arrive in time, those copies I sell at San Diego will have the signed plate, but you have to ask for it. If I do not get them in time for San Diego, only the trades will have them and only if you ask for them.

As I said, I only have a very limited number to give away, and I want them to go to faithful Dojo members.

I believe the books that Paneltopanel are soliciting are all trade paperbacks, and they will all come with the signed plates.

Oh oh, I need to add one of those CBLDF trading cards to my "Please help me..." list

I have already pre-ordered a copy of the Panel2Panel trade paperback with the limited book plate from them.

Speaking of which, would it be possible to see the art for the CBLDF card? If I like, I might consider bidding in the auction...

I have not drawn it yet.

Do you know if when paneltopanel recieves the HC of UY 23 it will also include the plate ?

I asked John at Paneltopanel, and, yes, he will offer the signature plate with the hardcover. Here is the listing:
