Collection: Graphic Arts Featuring Charles Bukowski
Bukowski's work attracted serious artists. Robert Crumb illustrated four of his stories — the drawings for Bring Me Your Love, There's No Business, and The Captain is Out to Lunch are among the most collectible items in the Bukowski market. Spain Rodriguez illustrated the German edition of Women and two stories for Fling Magazine. Their first meeting ended with Bukowski trying to pick a fight with him at a party.
This collection also includes comic books, trading cards, and foreign editions whose cover art tells its own story about how the world saw Bukowski.
