Behind the Scenes at Stuart Ng Books 7/29, we're back from Comic Con

JUST ARRIVED WEDNESDAY.... NOW IN STOCK. Wendling "Daisies" sketchbook:









We're back from Comic Con....Here's our banner from booth # 5012.







And here are some views of the booth interior....


We we so pleased to debut our new publication... Claire Wendling's "Daisies." This stunning all new sketchbook of Claire's most recent work was at the printers during the con... we were able to have one box air shipped to us during the show... and it sold out so fast I didn't even get a picture of it. Not to worry. The rest of the print run is en route to us now. In the snap above, you can see an original from the sketchbook hanging above the rack of Wendling books.



We are unpacking boxes this week. Watch here and on the NEW ARRIVALS page of our website for titles and prices of artist sketchbooks. Many, many artists contacted Stuart and asked him to handle post-con sales of their books. We are so grateful for the support of these artists and our patrons.



Below is a view of the booth interior.. near the front entrance...







The exterior grid with Posters of books in stock and coming soon...






And here's Stuart inside the booth. On the grid is one of the special Peter de Seve prints with an individual remark original drawing...























Thank you to everyone for your kind comments and support. Many people let us know how happy they were with the stock and booth set-up.





We do limit access to the booth via bag check and other policies designed to provide a safe and comfortable environment for you and our staff. We appreciate your understanding and apologize for any inconvenience. We have already seen posts online that describe our booth as an "oasis" from the convention crowds. By Sunday especially, many patrons were glad to be able to unload their burden of backpacks and bags while visiting us. Not to mention the chance to shop without being battered by someone else's luggage :) Our booth is large enough to provide access for wheelchairs and our team is happy to assist with shopping. I am very sorry that, with this convention, we came to realize we can't accommodate patrons with strollers or young children. This is a safety consideration for everyone at the booth.... the kids, our helpers and the other patrons. We appreciate your understanding.





Your comments are welcome. We are always looking to improve the benefits we bring you at Comic Con...





The office is closed today.... so I will be adding a long series of posts tonight to bring you up to date. Thanks for all your calls and emails... but we aren't able to make appointments right now. You'll see why shortly....
