At the turn of the century, most of what is now Rich­ mond, San Pablo, and El Cerrito was owned by descendants and heirs of Don Francisco Maria Castro and by farmers and cattle ranchers who had trekked westward to the Promised Land after the close of the Civil War and purchased land without securing legal title. The Castro heirs were a bitter, disappointed lot. Prior to 189^# the great San Pablo Rancho, comprising a substantial por­ tion of what is now urban Richmond, had been theirs. But on that, fateful year, and after four long, weary decades of controversy, the court handed down a landmark decision which, in effect, broke up the former Spanish Land Grants into diverse ownerships, leav­ ing little to the Castro offspring. Painful as the decision was* the doors were opened for speedier land development. Among the beneficiaries of the great land partition was John Nicholl, a jovial but shrewd old country Irishman, who was awarded 152 acres of a rough, hilly peninsula jutting into San Francisco Bay and identified as Point Richmond on old United States geodetic survey maps.

  • BIO & Press Release
    s c o t t e d e r g a l l e r y | n y c Kim Deitch | Solo Exhibition December 6th, 2013 to January 25th, 2014 Artist reception December 6 th at 6 PM Scott Eder Gallery 18 Bridge St., Brooklyn, NY Scott Eder Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of art by the New York-based Underground Comix legend Kim Deitch. Spanning 30 years of work, the show will feature art from his most recent graphic novel, Katherine Whaley, and include selections from classics such as Smilin' Ed, Stuff of Dreams... and the infamous cat, Waldo. Deitch's narrative sense takes no back seat to the precise line of his pen; his clear lines have evolved towards a lush inking style, with an almost velvet-like textural quality. His yarns explore themes like obsessed collectors, film history, and dementia, and can flow from the mundane into the surreal and psychedelic as smoothly as a daydream. While silent movies and old-time animation haunt the stage for Deitch's characters, two- dimensional creatures cross into reality and often leap right out of the artwork with his signature “exploding page” layouts. In addition to original artwork, silkscreen prints, T-shirts, and signed books will be available for purchase at the opening reception on December 6th. __________________________________ Son of well known animator Gene Deitch, Kim Deitch rejected his conventional Pratt Institute education and found inspiration as a young adult in the burgeoning Underground Comix movement of the late 1960s. Underground Comics (or “comix” for the oft-X-rated themes) evolved as a reaction against the censored world of the CCA, the Comics Code that governed mainstream comics and basically kept them G-rated.

  • Underground Comics Syndicate Proofs Collection
    Special Collections 401 Ellis Library Columbia, MO 65201 & Rare Books (573) 882-0076 [email protected] University of Missouri Libraries http://library.missouri.edu/specialcollections/ Underground Comics Syndicate Proofs Collection Scope and Content Note The collection consists of a sample of underground comics published by Rip Off Press, and includes the work of comic artists Ted Richards, Fran Stack (Foolbert Sturgeon), Dave Sheridan, Gilbert Shelton, Harry Driggs (R. Diggs), Bill Griffith, J. Michael Leonard, Sheridan Anderson, Larry Gonick, and Joel Beck. Provenance The collection was donated as a gift to the University of Missouri, Special Collections and Rare Books on December 1, 1991, by artist Frank Stack. Biographical/Descriptive Note The Rip Off Press was founded on January 17, 1969, in San Francisco, California, by Fred Todd, Dave Moriarty, and cartoonists Gilbert Shelton and Jack Jackson. The first Comix Rip Off Press was published in 1969. As the underground comics market petered out in the mid-to-late 1970s, Rip off Press shifted its focus to other cartoonists and other comics (including their long- running anthology Rip Off Comix). After the collapse of the Direct Market in the early 1990s, Rip off Press began cutting costs and gradually pulled out of publishing. Source: Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rip_Off_Press The Cartoonists: Gilbert Shelton was born May 31, 1940 in Houston, Texas. While attending the University of Texas at Austin, he published his early cartoons in the University of Texas humor magazine, The Texas Ranger. After graduation, Shelton moved to New York City and got a job editing automotive magazines. The idea for Wonder Wart-Hog came to him in 1961, and he created Fat Freddy’s Cat in 1969.
