Yellow Dog started out as a tabloid-size fold-out newsprint broadsheet with black-and-white interiors featuring some yellow spot color, published by the Print Mint in Berkeley, California. It published 22 issues from 1968 to 1973, featuring many of the period's most prolific and legendary underground cartoonists, including Robert Crumb, Joel Beck, Robert Williams, Rick Griffin, Greg Irons, and Trina Robbins. Crumb contributed to many of the seminal works of the underground comix movement in the 1960s.
Other notable contributors included Andy Martin, John Thompson, Buckwheat Florida Jr., Jim Osborne, Vaugn Bode, and Victor Moscoso.
