Robert Crumb - Original Sketchbook Page,  Float
Robert Crumb - Original Sketchbook Page, "Floating in the Clouds"" (early 1960s). Robert Crumb could never sit still when there was a pencil and pad of paper around. Here's a page from one of his composition books, filled with whimsical sketches including a man floating in a cloud; a drawing of sister Sandra, noting her obsession with the music of Rogers and Hammerstein, and lots of strange figures on both sides of the page. An old steamboat, the "Saint Louis Belle" is seen on the reverse, along with a "Fritz"-like cat and bird in period costumes. The page measures 6.75" x 8.5", and is in excellent condition. Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
