Giant Summer Print Sale













The R.Crumb Site is pleased to announce our Giant Summer Print Sale of rare lithographs and etchings from sold-out editions. Publisher Alex Wood is offering select prints from his personal collection at the most reasonable prices available. Their authenticity and quality is guaranteed by Wildwood Serigraphs and the Official R.Crumb Site

"Crumb and I have done around two dozen editions, most of them serigraphs, but some etching editions as well. All of our editions are sold directly to the public (not through any galleries) at extremely low prices. I've had people in the "Art Biz" tell me the artwork would sell better if it were priced higher, that no one is going to take any artwork seriously if it's priced below a grand. But that's not how we feel, and Crumb is insistent on keeping his artwork as affordable as possible for all of his readers.

"Once an edition sells out, the print values increase, of course. It's difficult to assess how much each print is worth. Prices on ebay help establish the market value, and also auctions. I've heard, for example, that the Cheap Thrills print sold for as much as $2,800, and selling regularly at $2,500 in galleries. All I know is we try to offer any sold out print at the lower end of the spectrum. I want people to feel confident that if they're buying a print from rcrumb.com, they're getting an authentic print in perfect condition at a good price."

PS:
I also want to give everyone a heads-up that Crumb and I are going to publish his Hup comic books (there are four of them). They've been out of print from some time now, and we're planning on printing and releasing Hup #1 around Christmas time. I'm very excited about that, because the Hup series are some of my favorite Crumb comics of all time.
