A comprehensive bibliography of Crumb in all media through 1980. The full title: R. Crumb Checklist of Work and Criticism - With a Biographical Supplement and a Full Set of Indexes by Donald M. Fiene. This is the uncommon hardcover edition.  

From the dust jacket:

Robert Crumb. Doyen of the underground, ur-Snoid, bad boy of the 80s. Here is everything you ever wanted to know about the man, about his works, about works about him, and so on to the nth power of Crumb.

Through years of painstaking research, author Don Fiene has ferreted out every squiggle and sketch, every subscript, footnote, and nano-reference, for a veritable carload o’Crumb. This manuscript has been embellished with over 40 pages of lavish illustrations, many heretofore unpublished.

Full indexes cover every aspects of el Crumb; his complete published works, periodicals, comic books, translations and foreign publications.

Chapters cover anthologies containing R.C.’s work for American Greetings Corp., juvenilia, shows and exhibitions, records and record covers, as well as graphics of, writings about, and reviews of his work.

By way of introduction – or to renew old acquaintances – there is a 13-page illustrated index of Crumb’s inimitable characters; Horny Harriet, Mr. Natural, Yetti, Whiteman…

The R. Crumb Checklist answers definitively the question on everyone’s lips, “où sont les Snoids d’antan?”
