Year of the Child.

Another wander down Nostalgia Road, Here's a second significant cartoon from my first year with TravelWeek. Evidently 1979 was nominated 'The year of the Child' and that fitted nicely into the theme of a cartoon I did about supposed friction between the Ansetts... father Reg, and son Bob, It appeared in the May 21 issue of that year.

In the very next issue the TW editor reported that Bob Ansett had requested that the original might be allowed to adorn his office along with other cartoons featuring himself. I was happy to oblige.

I suppose the caricatures were OK but, as mentioned previously, that was during my 'big foot' era and I wince every time I see the work nowadays!
