"It must be true - it was all in the papers" - A tribute to Ronald Searle


This 1952 book was featured on this blog two years ago (http://picturesfromanoldbook.blogspot.com/2010/03/it-must-be-true-it-was-all-in-papers.html ). I thought I'd post some of these images again in tribute to the great artist who passed the way a couple of days ago in France at the age of 91. For more information on his life and great career, here are the obituaries in yesterday's Independent http://www.independent.co.uk/news/obituaries/ronald-searle-illustrator-and-cartoonist-who-created-the-anarchic-world-of-st-trinians-6284479.html and the Daily Telegraph: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/culture-obituaries/art-obituaries/8989894/Ronald-Searle.html
