Description

This was done for a "Look-in Gift Special" TV Comedy Scene in 1976. I loved it as soon as I saw it.
It seems to me an odd mix of old time US film comedy and then recent British TV comedy stars (with a few animated characters thrown in).
There's a little bit of glare from the plastic sheet which protects the painted surface.
(And yes, I'm a rubbish photographer).

That's a fun piece with celebs of the era and legends of entertainment! The faces look so good over the cartooning.

Pretty amazing and quite different than the stories I normally associate with him- a lot more cartoony
