Condition: Very Good. Hardcover, 96 pages. During World War II, the British government issued a series of public warnings in the form of witty posters by the brilliant cartoonist Fougasse, a.k.a. Cyril Kenneth Bird. (?Don't forget that walls have ears!? a fashionable woman whispers to a friend, as Hitler's face peers ominously out of the wallpaper.) This illustrated tribute to one of Britain's most popular artists begins with his celebrated WWII posters and continues with his later work for Punch magazine and elsewhere. An important contribution to the history of both cartooning and propaganda, it compares the relative effectiveness of hard-hitting American wartime designs versus Fougasse's light touch. Record # 362088.
Hardcover. Elm Tree Books. 1977. London. Hardcover (no dust jacket). Quarto (large format). Very good. There are two tiny spots of edgewear to upper boards. Fougasse, whose birth name was Kenneth Bird, was born in England in the year 1887. Wounded at Gallipoli, he turned to drawing on his return to Britain and became a prolific artist and cartoonist. This book features some of his best work. Unpaginated (approximately 95 pages).

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. PONT (Graham Laidler, 1908 - 1940) (illustrator). 1st Edition. With an original and brilliant style, as well as an excellent sense of gentle satire, Graham Laidler , drawing under the pseudonym of PONT was one of the most popular and successful artists who contributed to that great British humor magazine, "Punch". This book, simply titled "PONT", is a selection of Laidler's inimitable cartoon art that was originally published in "Punch". It's easy to see why he had an influential effect on other cartoonists. The book has an excellent preface by English cartoonist-artist Fougasse (Cyril Kenneth Bird). TITLE : PONT AUTHOR : PONT ( Pen name of Graham Laidler, 1908 - 1940) INTRODUCTION : Fougasse (Pen Name of Cyril Kenneth Bird, 1887 - 1965) Bird was another successful cartoonist, who did much work for the British government during WWII. He was also quite influential, and was one of the few cartoonists to be the editor of a major periodical ("Punch"). IMPRINT : Collins, 48 Pall Mall, London DATE : 1942 EDITION : First Edition (Printed under war time strictures.) DETAILS : Other than the Introduction by Fougasse, the book is filled entirely with cartoons by PONT. 96 pages; 5 3/8" x 7 1/2"; cloth-covered boards and spine, with gilt lettering on spine. Sans dust-jacket. CONDITION -- VERY GOOD -- This is a previously owned book that remains clean and presentable, with the following particulars noted : EXTERIOR - Spine extremities are compressed, and display mild rubbing; board fore-edge corner tips are bumped; there is, just discernible, mild weathering along the fore-edges of each board; color is still fairly vivid; text-block edges are mildly toned and foxed. BINDING - The binding is mildly cracked at pages 32 and 64; it is obvious that the book has been perused - the leaves opening widely - however, no leaves are detached or loose - the whole being fairly sound. INTERIOR - The end-papers are lightly toned; the paper throughout is lightly toned, with a touch of foxing here and there, else the interior is clean, with no writing, marking, or marginalia.
