Description
Robert Crumb Whiteman Meets Bigfoot Unpublished Illustration Original Art (1977). Whiteman and his Sasquatch playmate "Yeti" get to know one another in this pen and ink production drawing from Boyd Jacobson's "lost" screenplay, based on R. Crumb's story from Home Grown Funnies. Jacobson, who directed commercials for television, was a neighbor of Crumb's, and would occasionally play music with the cartoonist. Crumb was a little more easy-going in those days, and agreed to sell Jacobson the rights to the feature on a year-to-year basis, for one dollar a year. In addition, Crumb also did a set of new drawings for the project, including this signed piece. It has an image area of approximately 9" x 11" on vellum paper, with a few faint pencil lines. There is a small ink smudge on the reverse side, visible at the top left corner (but out of the image area); otherwise, the art is in Excellent condition.More information about Robert Crumb.
