Description
Introductory Essay by Art Spiegelman
Commentary by Richard Merkin
ABOVEGROUND FOR THE FIRST TIME
As wry and raunchy as the subject it celebrates, this inspired volume introduces a new generation to the Tijuana Bibles, underground comic art form the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s devoted to making sexual mockery of every sacred cow in the pasture. Folk art with a subversive edge, the Bibles are unveiled here with a hundred life-size reproductions.
