Cartooning: Can I have that idea please?
August 9, 2012 in General, News
One of the prices for the skill of visual thinking is that sometimes other people admire them to the point of purchase, but not for direct attribution.
The picture above of the cover of the most recent issue of Private Eye magazine is an example of this. But, er, exclusively, we can reveal the original cartoon behind the mass-market cover page printing.
Bright ideas, we’ve often got ‘em.

It’s good that your caption made the front page, Pete, but a shame not
to see the Fiona Bruce caricature in print. A hard subject to get right,
I’d think, but you’ve managed it. At least it gets a showing on
Procartoonists.org!
