We present results of the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory OSSEobservations of the Crab pulsar, made during MJD 48373--48406 (27 April1991--30 May 1991) and MJD 48798--48804 (25 June 1992--1 July 1992). Pulsarlight curves and spectra over the 0.05 to 10 MeV range are presented. Thearrival time of the gamma-ray peak and the radio peak agree to within 30s,which is better than the 300s accuracy of the measurements. The overallpulse phase averaged spectrum in the 0.1--10 MeV range is well-fit ...
