Unique Father's Day Gifts your Dad will love!

If you Dad is a baby boomer, you know--some where in that age group from 45-70, it's very likely that he is a R. Crumb fan--whether he admits it or not is another issue.

Robert Crumb was a part of the counter-culture movement of the 1960's and 1970's, known as the father of the underground comics movement, he is the sole author of the original first 3 issues of the much collected ZAP COMIX.

He is also the creator of Fritz the Cat, who later went on to feature film fame, as well as possibly his best loved character Mr. Natural, a mystical madcap known for telling it like it is and not known to suffering fools well.


Other characters include, Flacky Foont, Dirty Dog, Smelly Old Cat,Shuman the Human, Vulture Demoness,Devil Girl, BoBo Bolinski and Mr. Snoid.

Crumb is a musician as well, who has recorded with the Cheap Suit Serenaders, and is an avid collector of 78 records. He has drawn many album covers over the years, perhaps the most famous of these the "Cheap Thrills" cover he did for Janis Joplin. As well he did a series of collectible Trading Cards for Yazoo Records: Heroes of the Blues, Early Jazz Greats and Pioneers of Country Music all feature the early great musicians who where among the first to record blues, jazz and country music.

Recently Crumb released an illustrated version of the Book of Genesis, the original artwork is currently touring the US. Next stop the San Jose Museum of Art,opening June 23.
