My signed Jarvis Cocker book arrived ( and I also got one of these signed A3 'posters' ) as well as my signed replacement book Ai Weiwei at Kettle's Yard. I have a bookshelf space issue though. Not fun.

Would certainly recommend the Alex James autobiography if you haven't read it, one of the best music autobiographies I have read.
I too received the Jarvis Cocker poster, but just checked, my book wasn't signed? Cant recall if this was the deal or not?

They replied and said it was only the poster that was signed, but apologised saying that is was obviously very unclear as they'd been inundated with messages about unsigned books!
I'm only on Chapter Two, but it's a great read so far though.

Only saw that the book is unsigned when arriving at home, my order clearly stated “signed book”. Rough Trade offered me to send it back, which I did. Bought a signed one off the bay for just under 30gbp so not too bad after all

That said, unleashed my patented leaving it in my steamy bathroom for 20 minutes, then over the weekend between some MDF board, and now flatter than a pint at my local during 'Happy Hour'.
Nice little poster mind, and really looking forward to reading the book - appreciate the post EKAP.

Any road, another Rock 'n Roll memoir, and I know there are plenty of Gangsta's on here that know their way round a Spice Girls record, but signed copies of Melanie Chisholm's memoir available here -

It makes for really uncomfortable reading and posting on a mobile. I don’t enjoy the experience now. Just my opinion tho some may prefer it.

Those spamming posts were all longer than 20 words anyway.

Really enjoying the current book, well written, and will definitely look forward to reading this -

Edition of 440, $300.
Not one for the flippers, but if you like Guyton, I think it's pretty great bang for the buck.
