“Bloom County (09/02/1983)”
by Berkeley Breathed (1957-)
6 x 18 in., ink on paper
Coppola Collection

There is some Bloom County art out there (I have one other example), so it is not quite as rare as Calvin & Hobbes, but it is not that easy to get.

Breathed recently offered a “Collector’s Set Limited Release” of a new 1980-1989 collected printing of the Bloom County strips. The package included the books, along with a personalized drawing of Opus, an original art strip feature Opus selected by Breathed, and a page from Breathed’s sketch book.

The front cover with a personalized sketch, and the interior page with the reproduction of my strip.
