Item description from seller

First St. Martin's Griffin Edition: November 1998, 1st printing. 182pp. w/Crumb's Comix & Illustrations mid-book insert. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread/unmarked, in AS NEW condition. "Accolades and Reflections on the Controversial R. Crumb - You hold in your hands a diverse collection of tributes to the controversial artist and underground comix pioneer R. Crumb. Follow his trajectory from homemade comic books and greeting-card design through the comix renaissance during the San Francisco psychedelic revolution to his expatriate life in France and his renewed renown today." [publisher copy] "God bless Crumb. I've always been happy that there was someone as sick and twisted as I am."--George Carlin. "Robert Crumb--lurid, pornographic, sexy, twisted, hilarious, and depraved. The greatest American satirist is also its finest draftsman."--Joe Coleman. "I can think of no one more unqualified to say anything about Robert Crumb's artwork than myself. In fact, it's useless for most cartoonists of my generation to do so; without him, there wouldn't BE any cartoonists of my generation."--Chris Ware. "Over 40 of Crumb's peers, friends & admirers have contributed to this work, including: Matt Groening on cross-hatching & the corruption of youth, Terry Gilliam, Paul Krassner, Alan Moore, Jim Jarmusch, Terry Zwigoff on the making of the harrowing CRUMB documentary, Daniel Clowes, Kim Deitch, Jim Woodring, Will Eisner, dozens more. Pristine paperback w/sharp corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, quite presentable. Crumb fans will love this.
