Balloon Vendor Comix

Fred Schrier’s Balloon Vendor Comix is a single-issue, one-man showcase from Rip Off Press, first published in 1971. As both writer and artist, Schrier fills its pages with the kind of offbeat, underground humor that defined the era’s comix scene. This slim, self-contained volume stands as a curious artifact of the early 1970s counterculture, offering a brief but authentic glimpse into the raw, unpolished creativity of the time.
