Item description from seller

R. Crumb's Carload O' Comics: An Anthology of Choice Strips and Stories, 1968–1976. Introduction by Harvey Kurtzman. Bélier Press, 1976. First printing. A substantial gathering of Crumb's underground work, with Mr. Natural, the Snoid, Shuman the Human, and a whole unruly population of Crumb characters. Kurtzman supplies the introduction, and the anthology includes what was then a new fourteen-page story. Plenty here for a collector of underground comix or seventies counterculture to get lost in. Original illustrated paperback wrappers, approximately 7 1/8 x 10 1/4 inches. Very good, with moderate rubbing and edge wear, light creasing and wear along the spine and corners, age toning to the text block, and occasional small spots of foxing. Binding sound and interior generally clean. This is the 1976 first printing, not a later reprint. Please examine the photographs for the actual copy. I'll pack it carefully for shipping.

Store description

My name is Jim Camp, and I own and operate the synaesthesia press. First and foremost, the synaesthesia press is a very small, very independent publishing house specializing in broadsides and chapbooks letterpress printed in a small run. Authors and artists past published include Tosh Berman, Tim O’Brien, Barry Gifford, Charles Bukowski, and Charles Plymell, among others. As a bookseller, I offer a variety of inventory -- I especially love stuff that is considered generally subversive; for example, anything by or about Beatniks, Outlaws, Perverts, Weirdos, and Outsiders; good literary fiction (especially "dirty" and / or forgotten titles by forgotten authors) and almost anything by or about Bukowski. I love photography, especially found amateur snapshots and professionally made vintage photographic prints; little mags, zines, photo books, art books and Artists Books; and, finally, anything smutty or sleazy or erotic or cheesecake-related vintage publications, photos or ephemera. Thanks!…
