Every item and signature is examined, verified, and rigorously reviewed through a verification process with multiple authentication checks performed.
Product Details
This is a First Edition / First Printing of Back For More, signed by legendary illustrator Berni Wrightson, one of the most influential artists in modern horror and dark fantasy. Known for his iconic work on Swamp Thing, Frankenstein, and numerous Stephen King collaborations, Wrightson’s art is celebrated for its dramatic linework, atmospheric detail, and unmistakable gothic style. This copy is also signed by Eric Kimball and Robert K. Wiener.
Back For More showcases Wrightson’s mastery across a range of illustrations, sketches, and finished pieces, making it a standout volume for collectors of horror art, comic art, and Wrightson’s broader body of work. Signed first printings are highly desirable, as Wrightson’s passing in 2017 has made authenticated signatures increasingly scarce.
This copy presents the expected first‑printing identifiers and retains strong production quality throughout. Wrightson’s signature is bold, clean, and well‑placed, making this an exceptional presentation copy for collectors of horror illustration and fine press art books. This release is limited to 500 signed copies and is being offered in very good condition.
All Signed Products Have Been Authenticated and Verified with Lifetime Provenance Validation
High-level authentication is an advanced discipline that operates at the intersection of long-term expertise, forensic observation, and controlled verification standards. All items are verified for its origin, composition, production context, and historical alignment. First editions, first printings, and original works require a different level of scrutiny, where paper stock, binding methods, printing indicators, publication sequencing, and manufacturing variances must align precisely with documented release standards. Authenticity at this level is determined by convergence.
Extremely Limited Availability
Once a specific item, edition, or production run exits the market, it cannot be reproduced, reissued, or replaced. Many pieces offered here originate from private collections assembled decades ago and have been permanently removed from normal circulation, placing them beyond conventional availability. When verifiable rarity is combined with expert authentication grounded in over 30 years of specialization, these items represent asymmetric investment opportunities, where limited supply, protected provenance, and sustained collector demand create meaningful long-term appreciation potential.
