Frank Stack Original Art: Jesus Goes to a Faculty Party - p.6

FRANK STACK. Page 6 (of 6) of "Jesus Goes to a Faculty Party" (1972).

From the same issue of Jesus Comics #3 that featured "Jesus Joins the Academic Community." In this page, a drunken faculty bore, Harvey, corners the Lord at a dreaded faculty party. Stack speaks from experience, having taught at the University of Missouri art department for many years. From the early '70s, the Golden Age of Underground Comix. A funny page for any collector, but a perfect page for the irreligious with university connections.

Provenance: This original art is warranted to be from the artist's personal collection (Stack is exclusively represented by this agency). The art comes with a letter of authenticity upon request. See "bio" section for information on Frank Stack (a.k.a. Foolbert Sturgeon), one of the very earliest and most important of the underground cartoonists.
