    The figures take center stage in large photos - usually one to a page - but the book also includes small photos of the buildings they adorn, addresses, subway information, and helpful maps. With all this extra information, readers can venture out to see in person the faces that often go overlooked but which King has carefully trained his camera on., The figures take center stage in large photos - usually one to a page - but the book also includes small photos of the buildings they adorn, addresses, subway information, and helpful maps.

      This is part of a multiple shipment. There was a question about one item in the package, which was resolved, so the package arrived later than expected. However, it was well packed and arrived in great shape. The movies contained were exactly what I ordered, and all as described or better. I give 5 stars all round, including for shipping time, because of the reason behind it. It all leads to great service. Communication is excellent; variety, price & quality also. I highly recommend this seller.
