Signed by the author in thin black felt pen near the bottom of title page beneath his printed name; in the lower right corner of that page he has printed "St. Louis, MO" and the date ("5/3/23"). Below those he aded 878 because he apparently keeps track of how many he has signed; all this was done at Left Bank Books in St. Louis in my presence after an interview-type arrangement (Ciera Horton McElroy, local author of "Atomic Family") and a single question from a small and shy group of people on May 3, 2023. At that event, he read pages 2-3 and 58. Signed by Author(s).
