In 2002, Crumb drew a portrait for a serigraph edition which was to be signed by BB King and R. Crumb. BB's management didn't really understand Crumb's artwork, or the influences Crumb was using from the mid-'50's Blues album covers and show flyers from that period. So they rejected Crumb's full-length portrait. This resulted in the top half of the portrait being modified. But finally, this portrait–the original version– is presented in full color as Crumb first intended, using Crumb's excellent color guide and mid-fifties R&B poster references.

There are 300 prints in this edition, all numbered in pencil. The white Somerset archival paper is 18.5"x 24". The image, printed with archival Epson Ultrachrome inks, is 15" x 19". Your satisfaction is guaranteed.
