Description: Key Issue: Drag Cartoons #1! This Auction Includes: LOT OF 1 VINTAGE COMIC BOOK: DRAG CARTOONS #1 CGC 9.6 With Off-White To White Pages From Early 1963, The TOP CERTIFIED COPY Of The Iconic First Issue, From Pete Millar Publications. This Coveted Debut Finally Gave Monster Fans And Hippies And Hot Rodders A Unique Publication That Was Perfectly Suited For The Swinging Sixties, A Time For Artists Like Coop, Robert Williams, Ed "Big Daddy" Roth, Robert Crumb And Others To Reach An Emerging Culture Which Would Open The Doors To Titles That Would Only Be Found At "Head Shops", Such As Zap And Freak Brothers. But When THIS Landmark Book Came Out In The Early Sixties, Geared Towards The Surfers, Hippies, 'Delinquents', Cruisers, Potheads, Street Racers And Others Who Didn't "Fit In" With Regular Society, It HAD To Make A Lot Of Eyeballs Pop Out!!! (And It Must Have Found A Niche, As Eventually "Hot Rod Cartoons" And Other Spin-Off Titles Would Follow.) That Bizarre Green Creature That Looks Like He Could Be Rat Fink's Cousin Is Smoking The Slicks On His T-Bucket, To Get To The Beach Faster With His Surfboard. THE SENSATIONAL EARLY COUNTERCULTURE AND UG COMIX OF THE SIXTIES CONTINUE TO GAIN ACCLAIM AND INTEREST FROM BOTH SEASONED INVESTORS AND NOVICE COLLECTORS ALIKE, BUT THEY'RE SCARCE AND LIKELY WON'T REMAIN AFFORDABLE IN COMPLETE UNRESTORED SHAPE FOR MUCH LONGER, SO DON'T MISS THIS FLEETING OPPORTUNITY. The Cheesecake, Hot-Rodding, Shock, Hippy, And Supernatural Themes Never Go Out Of Style! This hails from a dark, dry, pet-free, non-smoking, climate-controlled environment. It's like a time capsule: when you admire this dazzler in person, the colors are blazing bright and there is no visible wear. It's hard to imagine there was an unused copy stored under such optimum conditions for six decades that it's this immaculate still! MATERIAL LIKE THIS SPOTLIGHTING ICONIC THEMES OF CINEMA, TELEVISION, POP CULTURE AND LITERATURE NEVER LOSES APPEAL. This will be carefully packaged very thoroughly to ensure safe delivery.
