Dive into the rebellious roots of underground comix with this vintage issue of Zap Comix #0, created by the legendary Robert Crumb. Though numbered zero, these stories were originally intended for the first issue but were lost and later recovered. This edition features a 60-cent cover price, identifying it as a later vintage printing (approximately the 7th printing) by Apex Novelties.
It contains iconic, boundary-pushing counterculture stories like "Meatball" and early appearances by Mr. Natural. This is a perfect, affordable piece of 1960s and 70s counterculture history for fans wanting a classic Robert Crumb artifact to actually read and enjoy without the steep premium of a pristine first printing.
Item condition: Fair (Reader Copy). The comic exhibits significant wear and damage throughout. The spine has been completely covered and repaired with clear tape, which also extends to the back cover. There are large missing chunks and chips torn from the front cover's edges and corners. The interior pages show heavy age-related tanning, edge wear, minor tears, and sporadic staining.
