Ginseng Roots Collectible Box
Description:
A collectible Box specially designed for Craig Thompson's GINSENG ROOTS series. From ages 10 to 20, Craig Thompson (BLANKETS) and his little brother Phil, toiled in Wisconsin farms. Weeding and harvesting ginsengâa medicinal herb that fetched huge profits in Chinaâfunded Craigâs youthful obsession with comic books. Comics in turn, allowed him to escape his rural, working class trappings. Now, for the first time in his career, Thompson is working in serial form, in a bimonthly comic book series. Part memoir, part travelogue, part essay, GINSENG ROOTS explores class divide, agriculture, holistic healing, the 300-year-long trade relationship between China and North America, childhood labor, and the bond between two brothers. The Collectible Box fits issues 1-12 of GINSENG ROOTS. This edition of the box is limited to 1500 copies. **BOOKS NOT INCLUDED** **SUBJECT TO ALLOCATION**
