Weird haircuts. Hoagy Carmichael with a pinstripe suit on. A bunch of wacky Anglo-Saxons. Some old people in Sauve with strange, startling eyes. There’s no end to the things you can draw on placemats while in restaurants waiting for food. Especially if you have the imagination of Robert Crumb.
Super excited to have three Robert Crumb first editions in stock. Waiting for Food Number 1, 2 and 3. These books reveal not just the sharp observer in the controversial artist, renowned for his taboo-breaking satires of American society, but a dreamier, more contemplative side too.
Each of these three hardbound sketchbooks contain almost 100 pages of black and white drawings made by Crumb while waiting for food orders to arrive. Three first editions in fantastic condition.
Hold the hotdog, the artist has important work to do….
