Nostalgia again..

Here's my Mason's View cartoon which appeared in the January 14, 1980 issue of TravelWeek  contemplating the new year resolutions of some travel industry luminaries of the time. This was just short of my own first anniversary as the publication's cartoon commentator.

Those depicted are (from top left) Minister for Transport Ralph Hunt... Rupert Murdoch (circling Ansett at the time)... sir Reg. himself... Jimmy Russell ( yes, the ABWAC stalwart... but also a Travel Agent and big-wheel in travel industry politics)... Sir Lennox Hewitt.. Qantas' chairman... Izzie Leibler another travel industry mover 'n' shaker... and finally, Bob Ansett founder and CEO of Budget rent-a-cars.
