The Cartoonists’ Club of Great Britain is 50 years old next week.
Members will be celebrating this weekend in a pub which stands on the site of The Feathers, just off London’s Fleet Street. This is where the CCGB was launched at 2pm on April Fool’s Day – appropriately enough for cartoonists! – in 1960.
The CCGB, like the British Cartoonists’ Association, is a social club for cartoonists and their families. Many members of the Professional Cartoonists’ Organisation, which runs Bloghorn, are also members of the CCGB and/or the BCA.
Bloghorn wishes the Cartoonists’ Club a very happy birthday.
