Sight Unseen: The Essential Charles Barsotti

What exactly does "Signed by Author(s)" mean? Is the following copy of The Essential Charles Barsotti (1998) listed on AbeBooks last leap day signed by the cartoonist Charles Barsotti, the book's subject, or by Lee Lorenz, the collection's editor? Is it signed by both? One could always ask the bookseller, I suppose, but where is the fun in that? For $18.84 I could buy the book myself sight unseen and report the outcome here. Why not do that?

Drumroll, please:


Now we know. It is signed and inscribed by the cartoonist.
