I can't speak for Scull and Hammond, but I imagine that if you sent it to them with return postage, they would be more than willing to sign it.
I'll let them confirm that, though, as they frequent this forum quite often. :)

Oops - I was wrong about the price of one of my items; just looked at my Baynes set and I see it's marked £150. Still, not bad, eh!
A Hobbit paperback on eBay claiming to be signed by "The Professor", which they are, as is every copy produced because they all included a printed copy of his signature

Sent notes to the seller, but will also inform any buyer after feedback is left and I can see who they are.
eBay need to fix the fact that you cannot inform buyers about problems before the auction ends.
It sold for £40, a lot of money for this paperback.

Here's a Hobbit -
You are bidding on an Ultra Scarce Hardcover edition of Tolkiens Masterpiece the Hobbit. Printed in 1954 before his popularity really began to soar these early volumes were as a result printed in scarce numbers.... These early editions are guaranteed to continue to increase in value over the coming years, particularly with the impending release of THE HOBBIT movies in the years to come... Needless to say quality hardbacks like this are near impossible to find. Will make a prized addition to any collection or an amazing start to one. This book is an investment and once bought tend not to be sold so can be a one off opportunity."
...
It's not even in that good a condition..

Edit: Trotter £400 bargain price
special centenary limition edition number 000789/10000 includes a centenary booklet and map, the readin of the lord of the rings on tape in very good condition 1859
But these tapes are a LIMITED EDITION - They must be worth having. And it also seems like these tapes (or "readins") were minted in 1859, so they are very early examples of the art.
Limited to 10,000 copies means that they are very,very,very.... sorry I can't think of the next word
Am I missing something here, this is very expensive for a 1st/1st but for a 1st/2nd.
