“Pablo Escobar Gaviria En Caricaturas 1983-1991” - (1992)

Drugs Traffic - Graphic Humor. Pablo Escobar Gaviria in caricatures 1983-1991, [Medellin], 1992. 4th square. 377 f, 1 h. Leather Publishing with facsimile signature and fingerprint in gilt. Book published under the supervision of Drug Lord Escobar while he was in the luxury prison of "La Catedral". Escobar took very seriously the publication of this work and manifests in the foreword: "The figurative language of this caricature represents an opinion, a criteria, a personal point of view and that is why we wanted to collect all the graphic thoughts and on this specific subject of narrative". The book starts with a report on the importation of cocaine by the Colombian Government and reprints a series of photographs of Escobar, some with his family and even some in prison. Hence, the caricatures. According to a member of the family of Escobar, most copies of the book were burned after Escobar escaped from prison.
