hardcover. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: As New. 1st Edition. First published by M Q Publications, London, 2006, 1st printing. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. "We at MQ Publications feel that we owe it to our dear, dear friend R. Crumb to help him establish a more positive public image with women. So many women find most of his work so repellent, they won't give him a chance, and this is a very sensitive issue with him. It pains us to see how deeply hurt and saddened he is, the poor darling, by the negative response of women to his work. And we know, we see, that he sincerely wishes that women would like his work more, even while he can understand why it offends their feminine sensibilities. But, as he explains it, he 'can't help it.' He has to draw it as he feels it, and he deserves some credit for the honesty of his self-expression, though it's often not very pretty, or sweet, to say the least! [] And so, we here at MQ Publications, to help our dear friend, this painfully sensitive, suffering genius whose work we so admire, decided to see if we could come up with a book that would win over the ladies. To this end, we went through all his work and selected out drawings that are--well, 'cuddly' might be pouring it on a bit too thick--that show some semblance of warmth, affection, tenderness, and we think the experiment is a success: with this collection of drawings of much loved children, women and pet cats, lovely landscapes, quiet rooms, and honored musicians, you will come away feeling a positive affirmation of life, and perhaps a more kindly feeling toward the artist himself. That is our hope here at MQ Publications, that you will come to 'wuv' R. Crumb as much as we do." [editors jacket flap copy] "I never get bored seeing more work from a master who is so obsessively in love with the act of drawing; every image, even an otherwise prosaic still life from a 'pizzeria in St. Hyppolyte du Fort,' captures the eye and imagination."--Steven Heller, The New York Times Book Review. "As Crumb admits in his introduction, sweet isn't what his work seems to be. Furthermore, he opines in so many words, sweetness is for gals. So, is this album of one-panel and one-page comics and many freestanding drawings somehow 'Crumb for the ladies'? Well, none of Crumb's trademark raunch is on view; the closest he comes is a reminiscence of his then-preschooler daughter's curiosity about 'poop.' But Crumb remains in love with carnality. What he draws has weight, and what he admires he draws even heavier. Surely the girl-jock high-school classmates he lovingly recalls didn't have legs quite that massive; they were teenagers, after all. Such drawing doesn't have much of the delicacy considered especially appealing to women. It does have particularity (does this guy know shading or what?), which gives each portrait of an old or (seldom) new entertainer, each view of a favorite forest pathway, each rendering of a fantastic bit of French medieval architecture, visual tangibility. And it has affection, which is sweet, no? But not just for ladies."--Ray Olson, Booklist. Pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in a sweet-as-new jacket that removes to reveal the same bright images on the boards. Quite presentable & collectible.…
