How old and how long have you been collecting Undergrounds?

Thanks for the welcome. I like your videos Sir Real, you remind me of Wavy Gravy, for some reason. Your stuff at the con, with ... ah was it hustin? or oldmilwaukee6er?, was hilarious. 50Cent#II -- you are a bull dog, I can't believe how relentless you are in pursuit of books you want and information you need. Old Mil - your sticky and other posts at CPG has made UGs more accessible for all of us laymen. Fishnuts - I am enjoying my Bogeyman No 1.

BTW - it's gump, because one of my given names is Forrest. If you can't laugh at yourself....

As long is it's not Bubba, had a bad altercation with Mykel T. Williamson once and let's just say that years afterwards reading about how he was stalking his ex-girlfriend and put a butcher's knife in her boyfriends abdomen in the middle of the street in front of her house wasn't that much of a surprise to me. What was a surprise was the hung jury so he's another one that got away with (attempted) murder...

Sounds like something ~~Skip Williamson~~ might draw.....or Crumb, or S.Clay Wilson... Yep, Wilson,

I started collecting Crumb about 4-5 years ago at age 48. Now have over 4000 underground and indy comics/books/prints etc. Have been selling for about 4 years at the Portland and Seattle comic book shows.

One nice collection, I've seen you bidding on eBay. I see you're in Rosenkranz area in Oregon. He's a poster her on the boards. He let me know about two shows in Seattle. The Frye Art Museum has a Crumb show from now until 27 April (you might want to check out if you're in Seattle) and one that just ended on 06 Feb. that was at the Fantagraphics Bookstore and Gallery.

Yes, I was going to bid on the Morse but it went away. Don't know if I'll be in Seattle by April or not but will see the exhibit if I get there. I live about 200 miles SE of Seattle, where and who is Rosenkranz of OR?

Well, I can answer the who portion. Patrick Rosenkranz is the author of Rebel Visions. (Gonna have to add this to the Wiki.)

And welcome, bdcues!!!

lol... Guess I should have looked up before I asked where and who. Rebel Visions is on the shelf above the computor. One would imagine that he has a large collection of undergrounds.
Greetings, Sir Real.

You might want to add one of these to your collection if you don't have one (it's by Rosenkranz).
