My UPS driver thought it was all over&#8230; but he was so completely and tragically wrong. Well, wrong, anyway, because there will be another four or five boxes on the way soon.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">You can see how I&#8217;ve spread many of the books with their vulnerable underbellies exposed: that&#8217;s so I can stamp them with my nifty custom &quot;Limited Edition&quot; stamp, prior to signing and numbering them.
