I am 41 and due to having 5 children and a wife (gorgeous) I have never been able to get my hands on most of these. Thanks for sharing, beautiful collection!!
I'm also 41 but I stopped at one kid so I still had some cash.
Always a good day when I know there’s some Canonically Crumb to look forward to in the near future!
*COLLECTABLY Crumb
What an interesting and informative video you made. Fritz the Cat (1972 ) and Crumb ( 1994 ) made me interested in the work of Robert Crumb too, and so did The other documentary The Confessions of Robert Crumb . It was because of the two documentaries that I learned about people like Aline, Sophie, Dana, Jesse, Charles Jr , and Maxon .
I did read a couple of R Crumb's books from beginning to end like; The life and death of Fritz the Cat, The complete Fritz the Cat, The complete Crumb vols 1 and 2, The book of Genesis, and most recently R Crumb's Heroes of Blues, Jazz and Country. I enjoyed them. I plan on reading more.
"Your vigor for life appalls me" is a wonderful statement. There's nothing that'll make you feel shittier than someone having a ball.
That's why I stay off Tik Tok
My book THE SQUIRREL MACHINE was released by Fantagraphics at the same time as Crumb's Genesis book. Fantagraphics got some kind of package deal from the printer to give some other books the same lavish hard-cover treatment alongside Genesis. I was completely floored when I got my beautiful edition in the mail. I was even more astounded when in NY City, walking down Broadway, I stopped in a few big-chain bookstores and saw my book prominently displayed right next to R. Crumb's Genesis book! I had a very strong "through the looking glass" sensation that day.
Thank you for an amazing program
I just started getting into R. Crumb and seeing your collection is awesome.
Thanks. Check out the rest of the series for unique insight into the Crummy-verse!
I like the cut of your thumbnail's jib.
i've been a fan of mad magazine since waiting for haircuts in 1959? they scared me then. perhaps my introduction to crumb's HEAD COMICS in 1968 scared me the exact same way. but with the added adrenaline of acid.
You definitely want to check out my Ode to Harvey Kurtzman episode from right before this, as well as my MAD Magazine podcast PODRZEBIE
Drooooool 🤤🤩
"dried it out page by page" 👍
Fantastic episode!!! I’d love a closer look at the R. Crumb Handbook. It seems cool, if a bit small format. You seem to like it. Please explain! 👍
I probably won't get a chance to do an episode on that one anytime soon, but it's an incredible overview of his life and career up till that point, with tons of samples of his work (including extremely obscure stuff,) structured by an autobiography with statements by artists and critics. Plus Poplaski did a wonderful job of designing and editing the book. It's a perfect introduction to Crumb as it's a compelling read from start to finish that leaves the reader very informed and entertained, and it's good for long time fans as well because it has so many obscure gems that you won't see anywhere else.
Thanks. Will check it out
An episode on the Crumb Family Comics book would be cool!
Noted
This only Crumb related stuff I own is:
- The complete Crumb Vol.1
- Waiting for food Vol.2
- The book of Weirdo
- Zap Comix #7
- Zap comix #15
- Mr. Natural #3
- The People's Comics
- The Crumb Documentary (Criterion DVD)
I'll trade you The Book of Mr. Natural for Waiting for Food 2
@@LittleCozyNostril Nah, I'm happy with what I have.
The book of Mr. Natural, as well as Drawn Together & Underground Classics, I could easily check out at my college library.
@@SketchIwerks It's probably not worth the shipping anyway
Ah yes, the elusive Vol. 4 of the Sketchbook series... I'm still looking for one :D
A pain I know all too well
@@LittleCozyNostrilwhat site did you buy it from?
@@UnhappyMerchant I got mine through Amazon but it was used from a reseller for a lot more than cover price. I kept checking Amazon, Ebay, Abebooks, and few other places. They'd pop up from time to time.
I would love to see an episode about the Kafka book!
I probably won't do that one but only because there are like three or four videos by other RUclipsrs and I'm not sure there's much I could add. It's beautiful, but a pretty straight forward illustration job.
your dad sent me to this page,
I want to see something like this but with Tezuka Osamu star system characters
I do like Tezuka, but I only have one or two books... so it would be a very short video.
I accidentally bought 2 copies of mystic funnies #1, they said they gave me the last full colour copy and a b&w copy which i gave to my friend who destroyed it. Ive still got the colorful one tho
Ah man! I would have liked a colour copy.
What about the Bukowski book Crumb illustrated??
All of the illustrations for that are in The Complete Crumb
What about the book version of his Heroes of Blues, Early Jazz Greats trading cards?
All of that is re-printed in the Complete Crumb and the Complete Record Cover Collection. So they'd be redundant in my collection. Good books though.
Grate collection you lucky man
(Don't tell my wife ;D )
@@LittleCozyNostril Hahaha
If none of these collections have Snatch Comics, they aren't complete. I have original numbers 1 and 3 that I bought back in '69, but I never found 2. I only saw a copy of it at an exhibition in the Modern Art Museum of the City of Paris in 2012. The catalog of that is now hard to find.
Back in the '60s, we didn't need to know Crumb's back story, the art was enough. You should also mention other artists who were in those comix, particularly S. Clay Wilson who influenced the others including Crumb.
Crumb's contributions to Snatch are in the Complete Crumb.
Seriously. I'm looking at them right now. Their printed sideways because it's was a half size book. The Complete Crumb also has the cover for The Snatch Sampler.
i still have a couple ZAP comics that i got in the 60's
Cool!
Crumb is a wonderful illustrator and I understand collecting him. Unfortunately I would be too prudish for that.
I have an affinity for the lurid
Flipping through the art (and not reading the text) really brings the similarity between his and Basil Wolverton's style into sharp relief.
Oddly, whenever he's asked about it he deflects
White man I remember that. Oh God I'm so Em Bare assed. Wow my buddy and I were just talking about that one. 😅😊
I've got a whole episode about that one ruclips.net/video/hljrCnOJIcQ/видео.htmlsi=8VvTR1j6gU7kZMQY
@LittleCozyNostril My friend in north carolina was a big crumb fan. We were really laughing at that white man one. Mister natural is ok. Do you have the one where mister natural ghost to heaven?
And God kicked him out of heaven because he said it was corney??
@@Bobbyboy-i3z That's from The East Village Other I think. I have it in The Complete Crumb volume. 5 and a color version in The R. Crumb Coffee Table Art Book. I've been doing Mr.Natural episodes in order and the God/Devil/Cheesis arc will be the subject of the next episode actually.
I'm very interested in that Charles Crumb book you mentioned at the end. I thought all of his stuff was thrown away by the mother after he died. Did you pick up the Foo books off ebay recently? There was a seller that had multiple copies for sale at a good price. I just got mine a few days ago.
I did get my copy through Ebay. I'm half expecting the Charles thing to be a cheap zine ripped out of Crumb Family Comics, but I rolled the dice anyway.
@@LittleCozyNostril Please let me know what the Charles book turns out to be. I just finished cataloging my Crumb books. 109 different hardcovers, trades, and museum catalogs.
@@forgerelli1 I don't have high hopes for it, but I'll let you know.
@@forgerelli1 Also, if you can think of any pages or anything thing that I'm missing that you have in your books, please let me know. For example, I've seen low res scans of an unfinished 3rd Eggs Ackley and the Vulture Goddesses and I'd love to see that.
@@LittleCozyNostril All the Crumb stuff I have is in book form, with a few exceptions like Hup, Mystic Funnies, the aforementioned Foo, and Sauve-Qui-Peut, which I was lucky to get when it came out for $40. I use the Crumb Compendium to check on what's what and where it is. You're probably a lot more knowledgeable on work that's unique to certain books. My nerdy Crumb knowledge is in the signed/numbered/limited hardcover book area. According to the Compendium I have them all except the 1968 leather bound edition of Head Comix of which there were 5 copies made.
Brinky!! Do you have the one with Brinky????
I'm not sure... Are you thinking about Justin Green's Binky Brown Meets the Holy Virgin Mary?
@LittleCozyNostril Yes yes you nailed it. Binky Brown!! There was one there was one where he noticed pubic hairs on the soap and realized it was his sister. Boy if I could find that one.
Yeah. I think I have that somewhere, but it's by Justin Green; not Crumb
@@LittleCozyNostril Right?I looked it up on RUclips.They had the one with the Virgin married.But not the one i'm looking for.
Okay, I'll bite. This channel is titled towards all things nasal.
WHY?
Canonically Crumb is a subsidiary of Little Cozy Nostril Enterprizes, the umbrella corporation of all of Kyle C. Bridgett's creative endeavours.
Do you have Sin City Comics? Specifically I am looking for Sin City Suicide.
Not really my thing
Why dont you have any originals ?
Assuming you're talking about first editions and not original art, there a few in there. But I did explain the nature of my collection in the episode 2:40
I meant original art 👍
@@standelman95 Oh. It's because I don't have thousands of dollars.
It's pronounced primer, with a short I sound. Not primer. That's what you put on a car before you paint it. Thought you might like to know. I enjoyed your video. Thanks.
It's not that cut and dry as that.
Both pronunciations are used in American and British English, with 'prymer' being more common in the latter. For example, my Canadian English dictionary only includes the "prymer" pronunciation for both a text book and paint. Apparently "primmer" IS the more popular pronunciation overall, though I've never heard it before (probably because I'm Canadian.) I always assumed the word came from "primary" as in "primary school," but apparently it coms from the latin "prīmārius" which would make it pronounced "preemer."
Anyway, seems we're both technically correct (which is the best kind of correct.)
From u.k.
I have about half of what you have.
But why dont you have the bible of filth?
Just curious.
Great channel
I have everything that's in it in different books. I've checked
@@LittleCozyNostril
Good I’m glad!
Thought it might have been censored, you
know how it goes!
It’s I’ve said I have a bit of Crumb myself
But it wasn’t the cash, I just decided to stop!
I’m like that all in on something then stop!
I’m keeping hold of it though.
Take care.
Thanks for getting back to me!
Unlike many plumbers!😂
I had stopped myself... Then I started this series
"Crummy-verse" sounds really awkward, off-putting and pejorative... and has nothing to do with Robert Crumb...
You don't think Crumb is really awkward, off-putting, and pejorative in the way he expresses his opinions? Those are his most defining traits pretty much. It's also is a portmanteau of Crumb and Universe, which is what I explore in Canonically Crumb. What would you call it?
