Breakdowns: From Maus to Now: An Anthology of Strips #[nn]

Dec 1977 · Bélier Press · 8.95 USD
“Intro”

"Intro" opens with a brief, self-aware note from the publisher clarifying a misattribution—this anthology wasn't released by Nostalgia Press, as initially listed, but by Bélier Press in 1977. The page sets a tone of authenticity and editorial honesty, grounding the collection in its actual origins. Art Spiegelman handles both the lettering and the cover art, lending a personal, handcrafted touch to the presentation.
