The Compleat Mister Infinity

[San Francisco]: [San Francisco Comic Book Company], 1970. Fine.. Signed first edition of Spiegelman's self-published mini-comic, produced around the time of the artist's move to San Francisco and immersion in the underground comics scene. Gary Arlington's San Francisco Comic Book Company was the nation's first comics-only store and the hub of underground comics culture, offering meeting space and photocopying capabilities to artists like Spiegelman, Robert Crumb, S. Clay Wilson, Trina Robbins, and Bill Griffith. In 2012, Spiegelman told the SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE: "San Francisco was the capitol of comix culture in the '60s and early '70s; and Gary (truncated) Arlington's hole-in-the-wall shop was, for me, the capitol of San Francisco." 2.5'' x 8.5''. Side-stapled black and white pictorial wrappers. Illustrated in black and white. 10 pages. Signed by Spiegelman in blue pen on front cover. (Inventory #: 40841)
