WOW! I JUST PURCHASED THIS AND ALTHOUGH I WAS WARY OF THE HIGH PRICE, I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED! WITHOUT GOING INTO DETAIL I WILL SAY THAT ANYONE WHO ADMIRES ROBERT CRUMB SHOULD HAVE THIS. THE AUTOGRAPH ALONE IS WORTH IT AND THE SELECTED NUMBERED AND STAMPED PRINT IS ALSO WORTH IT BUT THE CONTENTS OF THE BOOK ARE THE REAL PLEASURE HERE. RARE AND COLORED STRIPS AND SKETCHES MAKE THIS A FANTASTIC READ. BEAUTIFULLY PUT TOGEHTER. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Taschen and Robert Crumb together? Unbelievable, and that’s exactly what this volume is, rich in color and otherwise unavailable stories. This is a massive compendium of one of the greatest artists of the last half a century. With a pulled, surprise print enclosed in it’s own bound sleeve, this is truly a collector’s item, but don’t save for resale, open and enjoy. His work delves into not only his own obsessions and insecurities, but is one of the most insightful individuals rendering on paper the human condition. More often than not, it is right on cue and right on track. Slipcassed, signed, numbered and set in it’s own private corrugated packaging, this is one volume absolutely not to be missed. But, you better hurry, only 1,000 copies were set for sale along with 200 artist’s proofs set aside, so it won’t be available long. The print enclosed, original art quality! Not a detail was missed. Thanks Taschen.
