MATT GROENING + GARY PANTER: A COLLABORATIVE 1984 PROMOTIONAL FLYER WITH ARTWORK BY BOTH
(GROENING, MATT) (PANTER, GARY). Groening, Matt & Gary Panter. Los Angeles: Matt Groening, 1984. First Edition. 4to. Loose Sheet. Promotional Flyer. Fine.. One 11 x 8 ½" sheet photocopied recto only, 1 b&w illustration. This is the quirky Xeroxed flyer produced by Matt Groening to promote a 1984 joint poster, record, and comic book signing event with his good pal Gary Panter at Los Angeles' Graphitti Comic Art Gallery. Lettered and with a silhouetted background by Groening, the foreground image is of a Panter-drawn Jimbo intoning "Quit Wiggling!" to Matt's "Life in Hell" character Bongo perched atop his shoulders yelling "Halp". A most handsome, guaranteed vintage example of this exceedingly uncommon ephemeral item showing a single hole - punched for display on a wire hook - at the top center plucked from the wall of Westwood's Rhino Records at the time of the event by yours truly.
