Signed book: Love Is Hell. Fifth printing. Los Angeles, CA: Deborah Caplan and Associates, 1985. Softcover, 12 x 12. Signed and inscribed on the inside front cover in ballpoint, "Matt Groening, 12/13/85," who adds a large sketch of Binky the rabbit with a speech bubble inscription, "For Bruce Polichar." In fine condition, with some toning and show-through from sketch to front cover.
This large sketch of Binky, the main character in Groening's celebrated Life in Hell comic strip, was drawn more than a year before the Simpsons family premiered on The Tracey Ullman Show (April 19, 1987) and more than four years before Springfield’s finest made their Fox network debut on December 17, 1989. The earliest sketch from Groening that we have ever offered.
