This hardcover book entitled Crumb's World has been released by David Zwirner Books. Zwirner Gallery (New York & London) sell Crumb's original artwork and have now published a 190 page book of the artist's work. The book opens with an essay by Robert Storr and some introductory historical cartoons which influenced Crumb. The publisher's headline reads as "R. Crumb’s obsessions—from sex to the Bible, music, politics, and the vicissitudes and obscenities of daily life—are chronicled in this comprehensive book of work by the illustrious American comic artist." The cover is illustrated and designed by Crumb, so it's, needless to say, fantastic. The back cover also features a new self-portrait of Crumb, which is hilarious. The book features all-color pages of Crumb comic book covers, pages from his sketchbooks, pages from his Kafka book, some strips in black and white (Footsy and The Religious Experience of Philip K. Dick), and drawings from his Art & Beauty series as well as some recent portraits. The hardcover book is 7.75" x 9.75 inches, nicely bound, with thick, smooth paper–a well-published book. The book should be sold for $40, but because of the way our site is set up for shipping charges (dollar amount, not item), you'll be charged $10 for shipping, which is $4 dollars more than actual cost. For this reason, we're reducing the price from $40 to $36 to compensate you for the inflated shipping charge. So the total price will be $46 with shipping included.
