Underground Collectibles sells underground comix, posters, books, original art & prints, and other counterculture related items from the 60’s and 70’s with a special emphasis on underground comix.
We carry such titles as The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers, Home Grown Funnies, Mr. Natural, Neurocomics, Smile, Weirdo, and Zap Comix. These and other titles were drawn by the likes of Robert Crumb, Gilbert Shelton, Kim Deitch, Robert Williams, S. Clay Wilson, Skip Williamson, Rick Griffin, Spain Rodriguez, Victor Moscoso, Jay Lynch and many others. Absolutely great stuff and much, much under-appreciated.
We have a lot of inventory yet to be listed on this website. We hope to get it listed over the next few months so if you don’t see what you’re looking for please stop back again... real soon!

Editor and Publisher, a journal covering the newspaper industry, has reported that Jay Kennedy, the King Features Syndicate editor in chief who died last year, has bequeathed his collection of underground comic books to the Ohio State University Cartoon Research Library.
The collection -- which includes more than 9,500 items -- was described by King Comics Editor Brendan Burford as "tremendous" and "unparalleled." Burford worked with Kennedy at King, and helped him catalog the collection's contents.
Kennedy was an expert on underground comics who authored "The Official Underground and Newave Comix Price Guide" in 1982.
We have added two additional specials this month which we are discounting from our normal selling price. The first one is Cascade Comix Monthly # 18. We have a limited number of these which we are offering at just $4.00 each - more than half off our regular selling price! I believe this series is a much under appreciated title... if you haven't yet discovered Cascade Comix Monthly, now would be a great time to check it out.
Our other special this month is the book,
Rebel Visions: The Underground Comix Revolution 1963 - 1975 by Patrick Rosenkranz. We are offering it at the fantastic price of just $20.00 (publisher's price - $39.95). We only have a half dozen or so copies at this price. If this title isn't part of your collection yet now would be an ideal time to add it.
Shipping Increase/Decrease... Because of increased costs we had to raise our rates; however, we didn't think it fair to charge a higher rate for those of you ordering just one comix. For those orders, it is now actually cheaper. Effective immediately, all orders up to $9.00 will be charged a flat fee of just $3.00. All orders greater than $9.00 will be charged a flat fee of $5.00. We have held out on raising our rates as long as we could. We think we have come up with a pretty good compromise and hope you understand. (This is for USA orders only.)

Another great issue of Mineshaft is now available: Mineshaft # 21
We have a new category! As you can see at the top of the Navigation column, we have added the category, "Specials". Here, we will list items which we are currently offering at a discount from our normal selling price. Items may be anything - something we received at a great price and are passing on the savings to something which we have a quantity of and just want to move out.
Most "Special" items are, of course, in limited supply and may be sold out or removed at any time.
We have a couple of great items to start off with - Fogel's Underground Comix Price Guide and VelVeeda Singles and Seconds - both being offered at half off! Check 'em out here.
The following is from YouTube - it is a "teaser pilot" for the upcoming Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers movie, Grass Roots. Cool stuff!
The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers... The Movie
Yep! It seems like it is really going to happen this time. I have heard this rumor since the 70s but this time it looks like it is for real. It’s going to be a stop motion animation thing produced by the company, Celluloid Dreams and directed by Dave Borthwick. Fantastic news! (Did you notice who’s peeking through the door in the image shown above?)
All orders (U.S.) will ship for our normal low, flat-rate of just $4.00. And we pack everything with "collectors’ care" - just as we would like to receive it if we were ordering. All orders are shipped within 24 hours (business days).
Our friends outside the U.S. pay exact shipping charges - email us!
