Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

[nice copy, virtually as new with just a touch of handling wear]. Trade PB (reproductions of R. Crumb drawings) From the introduction, by Gary Groth: "Robert Crumb is the most autobiographical and self-revealing of artists, so the extent to which these letters illuminate his life, specifically his early artistic and intellectual development, is perhaps surprising. Most of the letters cover a five year period from 1958 to 1964, with only a handful of letters between '64 and '77. The majority, therefore, chronicle his thoughts and preoccupations from the age of 16 to 21, certainly among the most volatile, bewildering, and formative years of a young man's life, particularly so for an artist as driven as Crumb was even then. All the letters are written to two friends, Marty Pahls and Mike Britt, who shared his passion for comics and cartooning, his interest in art and music, as well as his groping for a philosophy of life. It was also the time when Crumb was defining his sexual identity and formulating his attitudes toward romantic love.".…

Shopbeschreibung

Welcome to ReadInk (rhymes with "Dead Ink"), now in our 29th year of putting interesting books into the hands of interested people. **** Although I occasionally lapse into the "royal we" voice, ReadInk is just me, from one end of the pipeline to the other: buying, cataloging, customer service, shipping, you name it. Nothing here is automated, and every order or inquiry gets my prompt, personal attention. **** In describing a book's physical condition, I employ standard book-grading terminology (Good/Very Good/Fine, with various in-between gradations as appropriate) and do my best to avoid both excessive jargon and overly-finicky detail. My goal is always to present a faithful impression of a book's condition and appearance; significant flaws are individually noted, or if too numerous are succinctly summarized. **** Books are more than just physical objects, however: they are also intellectual/information vessels, and in almost every case I also include some information about a book's content in my listing, even if it's only a carefully chosen quotation from the dust jacket copy. (This may sound like a small thing, but take a look sometime and you'll see how amazingly few sellers bother with this, especially in the case of older fiction, which is one of my specialties.) **** I take great care (and pride) in my packaging of books for shipment; I figure it's my responsibility to ensure that each book I send out will withstand the rigors of the U.S. Postal System, and will reach its new owner in the same condition as advertised. (A sturdy box or an unbendable package is always involved.) **** That's all there is to ReadInk: just a guy who has loved books all my life (perhaps to excess) and entered the trade in my "middle years" to see what I could make of it. And I'm still finding out. **** To view my inventory exclusively, head over to my website -- www.readinkbooks.com. ---- Howard Prouty, prop.…
