PLEASE NOTE: Tom will personalize the inscription based on suggestions like “Make it out to Bill”, or “This is for an aspiring artist, write something encouraging to them”, or “This is for Tina’s birthday”. He WON’T copy out a quote that came from you if it will look like it came from him. Things like “I love you, little brother!” are from YOU , not from Tom. By all means let Tom know the person this is being signed to is a MAD fan, or a huge fan of the subject matter, or is a professional artist themselves. He’ll write something appropriate that are his words.
