Posy Simmonds selection (1)

In honour of the opening of the 'Inking Women' exhibition at the Cartoon Museum I thought I'd highlight some early work by one of my favourite cartoonists (male or female) - Posy Simmonds.

Her earliest book (1969)

signed at the British Library in 2014

The Bear in that book then became the 'star' of long-running series of gag cartoons in the Sun newspaper

These cartoons were then collected in 2 books - the first published in 1974 and "More Bear by Posy" in 1975.

More tomorrow!
