FAMOUS QUOTES FROM FAMOUS PEOPLE

quotessub.jpg (20565 bytes)

Build character and spark learning with the motivational words of famous people. The beautiful designs and vivid colors in these unique theme banners will make a lasting impression on children of all ages-and make classroom decorating a snap!
$7.19-D each

Each quote banner measures "5 1/2 x 38 1/2" and includes quotes from people featured in our Famous Faces Portraits-plus many more! Each set includes six large quote banners. An example of one is given for each set below. Disclosure: These items have been listed primarily for our local customers. The shipping on them is quite high in proportion to the price, since they do not qualify for media mail shipping and require either priority mail or UPS shipping. The more large, flat items like this that you buy at once to be shipped to the same location, the cheaper the shipping will be per item. I will probably also have to lightly roll them to fit in a box at all.

We're in the Pacific Time Zone
Our normal office hours when we answer the phone are 10: 30 AM - 4 PM Monday - Friday.
We answer email and ship at other times, but normally take Sundays off.
 You can fax your purchase orders to 805-237-8639, but it's good to follow up with a phone call in a couple of days to make sure we got it, if you did not receive a delivery confirmation email. Please include an email address with your purchase order in case we have questions and so we can send your delivery confirmation number to you.  You can also attach a signed purchase order to an email.

 We prefer you ask your questions about products and availability by e-mail (barbsbooks@sbcglobal.net), since that gives us more time to prepare a thoughtful answer and keeps us from playing phone tag. Please remember to put our email address in your address book if you have a spam filter or you won't ever get your answer unless you also leave a phone number. We cannot usually tell you immediately over the phone if a book is here. We have to walk two blocks to check the warehouse, so I usually have to call you back or email you anyway.  We do check our e-mail frequently throughout the day when we are at home. If we should be out, and you leave a message on our answering machine, we sometimes cannot hear the phone number clearly to return your call. Those are some reasons why we recommend you email us first. If you want us to call you, please leave your phone number and time zone.
When you do email us, please do not leave the subject blank or just say "Hi" or "Hello" as the subject. We delete those before opening because a lot of spam messages look like that. 
We have supplied a subject line in the link provided above that will guarantee your mail will be opened fast.
Or call (800)925-8587 (not before 10 AM or after 10 PM Pacific Time)
