Although unconfirmed, it remains highly unlikely that the author performed any public book signings for Oh, the Places You'll Go!, his final book, given that he had experienced complications from his oral cancer prior to the book's release date on January 22, 1990; Dr. Seuss would lose his battle with cancer at the age of 87, on September 24, 1991. Signed examples of Oh, the Places You'll Go!, the last Seuss book to be published during his lifetime, are virtually nonexistent, with RR Auction having sold only two others in June 2021 and October 2022; prior to that, our research reveals that no other example had sold at auction within the past 15 years.
