R. Crumb's Third Eye Signed & Numbered Serigraph

We have just received the edition back from France where it was signed by Crumb. This is a smaller image size (paper size is 15" x 12") as per Robert's request. He also supplied a nice watercolor for the color guide, and I subsequently used 16 colors/16 screens to translate the subtle variations of color; so the edition does have a soft, watercolor feel. It's on cream paper, so the white (Crumb's glasses and third eye) really pops as it was meant to. This creates quite a hypnotizing stare, which only accentuates the humor in this piece. The humor is classic Crumb, and wait until you read the Certificate of Authenticity—it's very mystical and just as funny.

Paper size: 15" x 12".
Image size: 12" x 9"
Edition size of 110 prints with 11 Artist Proofs and 3 Printer Proofs. Each print comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and our guarantee for your complete satisfaction or your money back.

Where's Crumb - Fall 2009

Robert, in accordance with his agreement with W.W. Norton Company (the publisher of his latest book), will spend much of this autumn promoting Genesis. In late September he will hold a two day press event in Paris, and in the middle of October start his press tour of the US in New York City. From there he is headed to Richmond, Virginia. From there he attends an event in L.A. where all 200+ pages of the original art which comprises the book will be shown at the Hammer Museum. From L.A. he goes up to San Francisco where he will do some interviews but also take some time off to visit friends. In the middle of November he goes to the University of Texas in Austin to finish the tour. Upon his return to France, he looks forward to beginning the new book he and Aline plan to do together.

We thank everyone for their advice concerning dewarping 78 records. Many, many of you were kind enough to email us. Thank you.

Summer Sale

We have purchased, though a somewhat convoluted deal, the last 55 Devil Girl statues from an edition of 550. This edition was coordinated/directed by Jesse Crumb and signed by Robert Crumb in 1999. I think they sold for $240 or $250 each, but we're letting them go at our cost— $150 each. We want to move them out as we don't have the room for them. You will not find the Devil Girl (or Robert's sig) at a less expensive price.

Dimensions: from table to top of foot: 7 inches; base is 7.5 inches diameter; base is one inch high. Signature label is affixed to bottom of base and is about 4 3/8ths by 2 1/4. Robert's sig line is about 3 inches long, his signature takes about 2 inches of it.
