Ron Tandberg the Pocket(cartoon) Rocket!

This past week marked the 50th anniversary of famed cartoonist Ron Tandberg's start in the pro-cartooning game. His CV was outlined in last Sunday's Age, so wont repeat it here.

Suffice to say, R.T. is a 'toonie legend whose stinging barbs have become synonymous with The Age
where he has served the overwhelming majority of his career (except for a relatively short sojourn with the rival Murdoch press). Ron's brevity of drawing style and accompanying text is his 'trade-mark'. The umpteen awards he has achieved stand as all the evidence required to enshrine his popularity as a daily must read for multitudes of readers of all ages and walks of life.

Onya Ron!
