Crown, New York, 1972, 4th pr.  Large soft cover, 256 pages including Index.  Very good; card covers with light edge and a bit of cover wear, small colour scrape at lower front spine edge; binding sound with a bit of a lean.  Interior clean and unmarked; black and white illustrations.  “… has been prepared in conjunction with the first international exhibition of comic art held at the Louvre in Paris.  Already a best seller in France, it is fully illustrated with all the memorable and noteworthy types and trends of comic art and tells the entire story of the development of the comic strip, particularly in America where the most dynamic progress has occurred.” (from rear wrap)
