This is a first paperback edition of There’s No Business, a classic collaboration between Charles Bukowski and Robert Crumb.
Published by Black Sparrow Press in 1984, Bukowski signed this copy on the cover.
Crumb contributes seven illustrations to accompany Bukowski’s classic short story about an aging MC who has lost his charm with the audience.
This copy is in Very Good ++ condition with some light sunning to the spine and two tears above Bukowski’s signature. There is also a pencil price mark on the cover. See pics.

This copy came from estate of Red Stodolsky, owner of Baroque Book Store and a close friend of Charles Bukowski. Bukowski would go by Red’s shop regularly and the two would go to lunch at Musso & Frank Grill. But first Bukowski would sit and sign a pile of books for Red to sell. The great thing about these copies is that Bukowski actually held the books as he signed them. With the limited-edition Black Sparrow Books, Bukowski would sign individual pages that were later inserted into the books.
