Dave DeMoney. 2007. "Robert Crumb - Sauvons Sauve!" Pétanque & Pastis. January 27.
A blog entry about protests against a mega supermarket planned for the French village Crumb lives in. He did a series of posters for protestors against the supermarket headlined Sauvons Sauve! ("Save Sauve"). One of the posters depicts the lovely medieval village in the background dwarfed by a giant supermarket and parking place. I've been trying to obtain one of the posters for awhile; if anyone knows how I can get one please let me know! [Finally obtained a signed flyer! 4/2010]
Robert Crumb. 1991. "Place du Doyen Gachon" in Vues de Sauve. Portfolio of 8 black & white drawings. 8 1/2 x 11 3/4". Folder title signed "R. Crumb" and "71" (out of 200).
In 1991 Crumb issued a portfolio of eight drawings of different scenes of the French village he moved to. Devoid of people, the illustrations show the extraordinary details of architectural elements such as doors, shutters, gutters, windows, etc.
