    Description

    PROPHET ROYAL ROBERTSON, Visionary/Outsider, 1-SIDED PAPER.
    Royal wanted to be loved (and to have sex!).  Deep down inside, he had been hurt by "WHORES LIKE THE MRS ADELL", and he never overcame the pain.  This one I call "Adell LIERS AND HIGHWAY FOOLS".  On the left-hand side is Royal's song lyrics.  I find this line very telling:  "BUT THANK FOR GOD I LEARNED TO TRANSLATE / MY VERY DREAMS". It indicates a process/procedure that he had to endure while attaining Prophet-status.
    On the right-hand side is Royal's typical ranting against Adell and, on this one, her son and Indians (2 boys) and Negro (1 boy) and "GAS IN BOTTLE & FIRE AT CHERRIE TREES".  Royal held a grudge for sure!
    He refers to himself as "Royal" 7 times in the song lyrics, so in a sense this
    is
    autographed.
    Dimensions:  8.5" (w) x 11" (h)
    Shipped via USPS Priority Mail.
    NOTE:  Once this item sells, I will begin selling a number of other Royal items, mainly posters (calendars, adult-oriented ones, and some that adorned the outside of his dwelling and survived the hurricane that destroyed it).  MY BEST.
