Signed book: Work Is Hell. First Pantheon edition. NY: Pantheon Books, 1986. Softcover, 9 x 9. Signed prominently on the inside of the front cover in bold red ink, "Matt Groening, 10/13/87," who draws a fantastic full-length sketch of Binky the rabbit, with inscription in speech bubble above, "To Diane!!" In fine condition, with trivial toning to covers. This wonderful sketch of Binky, the main character in Groening's celebrated Life in Hell comic strip, was drawn at a most significant time in the artist's career—at this juncture, the Simpson family were only in their second season on The Tracey Ullman Show, and still over two years away from making their Fox network debut on December 17, 1989. The earliest sketch from Groening that we have ever offered.
