Science Fiction Comics poster.

Large, framed, Zap jam piece, on heavy white cardboard. Artists: Robert Crumb, S. Clay Wilson, Harvey Kurtzman, Gilbert Shelton, Spain Rodriguez, and Robert Williams. Copyright June 1970 by all artists.

From Heritage Auctions (re the original art): “Here is the incredible all-star jam page entitled “Science Fiction Comics”" that first ran in V6, #1 of the famed New York underground newspaper, the East Village Other, in 1970. It was reprinted as a poster, and even later reprinted by Fantagraphics in The Complete Crumb Comics #7 “Hot 'n' Heavy” collection in 1991. The original art was created in ink over graphite on small sections of paper (most 4.25" x 3.25") and affixed to a 20" x 27" illustration board. The 17" x 23.5" image area includes panels by R. Crumb, Robert Williams, Harvey Kurtzman, Victor Moscoso, Gilbert Shelton, Spain Rodriguez, and S. Clay Wilson. That’s the Zap collective plus the man who originally inspired most of the gang here, Harvey Kurtzman! It is signed by these artists at the bottom edge of the image area. Of all the many Zap Comix jams, this page ranks alongside the very best of them, and is perhaps the most famous one of all. An absolutely classic piece of Underground art history!”
