Sex Orgy Scandal

Ronald Searle was probably the first illustrator whose name I knew. As a pre-teen I had Whizz for Atoms (and now its subject has become a Penguin Classic). Although not a big reader I thought the pictures were ace so who knows what effect it had on me; until I was 19 I thought I wanted to be an illustrator. I could say more, but there's no point, Matt Jones has a Searle Tribute blog that's better than anything I could say so have a look at that. 

Incidentally, is it just me or does anyone else see a rotund, cigar smoking Spiekermann with a floozy on him arm?

Well, you'll certainly increase your Google traffic with that title, but I suspect the majority of new visitors will be disappointed... :)
