Jim Davis was at the 2016 Licensing Expo in Las Vegas a week ago, appearing without much fanfare, and folks just walked up (no lines nor crowds), got photo ops, autographs and even sketches. But unlike Comic Con, that was an industry trade show, only for professionals. He was a very gracious person to meet.

You might try going to: https://garfield.com/shop

 

The official website, as they might offer signed books.

 

You can buy original artwork (sketches and published strips) here directly from Jim Davis, so no marketplace mark-ups and the assurance of being authentic too.

Rather have a signed book, which the website doesn't offer. Original pages are $2K, can get a personalized print which is much cheaper, but a book is more value for the dollar and has a lot more strips to enjoy.

Their website redirects you to Hermes Press website and they don't offer you opportunity to purchase a signed copy.

 

Can someone please PM me if they can pick me up a signed copy from SDCC.

Just a heads up:

 

Hermes did offer a Signed version of this book to comic book stores. You can check with them if you want a signed version of the book. I realize the SDCC version will be a little more limited but if you can't get a hook up for that, there is another signed version that should be readily available.

 

Hope it helps.
