UPDATED: major museum publications

As ever with blog posts sometime you've just got to start somewhere. So today I want to start compiling a list of books / exhibitions about comics / cartoons / caricaturing that have been held by major museums and galleries.

Now updated with these two Tintin items. First up is 'The adventures of Tintin at sea' - the official book of the National Maritime Museum's [2004] exhibition.

There is also this (bi-lingual) guide to the exhibition.

There's also this British Library exhibition catalogue (from 2014). Cover art by Jamie Hewlett.

Now updated with this catalogue from the National Portrait Gallery's 1976 exhibition of cartoons from Vanity Fair.

I'll start the ball rolling with this publication by the V&A museum. It's a catalogue of a collection of prints in the possession of the Department of Prints and Drawings of the Victoria and Albert Museum

More suggestions welcome for other such publications!

Which Beano exhibition is this?

Beano fans are surely spoilt for choice at the moment, not only has the McManus Gallery in Dundee been taken over by them, and the gallery re-branded as the McMenace, but a small corner of London has been given over to all things Beano...

In case you're not sure where I am, I was in the Victoria & Albert Museum in South Kensignton
