56. * You've got it all ! *

Congratulations! 

Aline & Robert Crumb

That's it!
You've got it all! 
You're done! 
No more R. Crumb to collect!

Yeah, right. You wish!

First of all, although his output has slowed in recent years, ol' R. is still producing artwork. So you can't possibly have it all, can you?

Plus there's a lot of stuff floating around out there still. Maybe the Crumb Compendium (Carl Richter) can nail it all down for us, we'll have to wait and see.

found on the Internet


What about this "unknown" sketchbook, auctioned off at an art gallery a few years ago?

Plus there's all those ultra-expensive Sketchbooks (Taschen). What's in those, we wonder?

But let's put it this way:

  2. So does this mean that there is indeed material that does not appear in any of the German sketchbooks in all ten Fantagraphics volumes?

  3. YES. Most of what's in Items 3 -16 is NOT in the publications you mentioned, J. Nelson.
