Beschreibung:

Self-portrait.
ink on paper, 1973 9 7/8 x 7 inches (250 x 175 mm) signed Britton, p. 227 A fixture at the Gotham Book Mart early inhis career, 15 of Gorey's macabre illustrated books were published there. Gorey won the 1977 Tony Award for Best Costume Design for his work on Dracula. "I, as Calvin Trillin noted in the New Yorker, chain-smoked cheroots. What I chain-smoked back then, before Winston Groom ( Forrest Gump ) turned me on to a bigger & better cigar, were small, thin stogies that came in long, beautiful wooden Brazilian boxes. I had hundreds and hundreds of them buried in the basement of the store as I couldn't bear parting with them. When Gorey spotted them, like a bill-collector he appeared weekly to relieve me of my burden. My tribute, my thank you, for his terrific cat." -- Burt Britton
