:11:00
You know the guy.
:11:01
Fritz the Cat, Mr. Natural and all.
They made a movie about him, too.

:11:08
Jay McShann.
:11:15
Come on, Harv, you gonna buy that,
or what?

:11:17
I don't know, Marty,
it's got a lamination crack.

:11:20
A quarter.
:11:23
Maybe I could talk it down.
:11:26
- You are one cheap bastard, Harvey.
- I know I'm tight, man.

:11:29
I live on a government wage.
:11:32
You collect Jay McShann, man?
:11:35
- Yeah, man, how about you?
- Yeah.

:11:37
But most of my records are back in Philly.
:11:40
Harvey, meet my buddy, Bob Crumb.
He just moved to town.

:11:43
He's an artist
with the American Greeting Card Company.

:11:46
You should see his comics, Harv.
They're out of sight.

:11:51
I'm into comics myself.
:12:03
So Crumb showed me this comic book novel
he was working on.

:12:07
Big Yum Yum Book.
:12:08
I'd never seen anything like it.
:12:10
This is terrific. I really dig your work, man.
:12:13
This Peter Wheat book is by Walt Kelly.
It's pretty rare.

:12:17
- Yeah? Can I get good bread for it?
- Not yet.

:12:22
Let's get back to your book.
What are you gonna do with it?

:12:25
I haven't really thought about it.
It's just an exercise.

:12:29
No, man. It's more than just an exercise.
:12:33
It's breaking ground, man.
There's some wild shit in here, Bob.

:12:38
You're spitting on me, Harvey.
