This is the thelwell celebratory Centenary issue,so do enjoy the wonderful illustrations and equine humour of 'the unofficial artist of the British countryside',the late Norman Thelwell. Norman Thelwell (b. 3rd May,1923 – d. 7th February,2004) was an English cartoonist well known for his humorous equine illustrations of ponies and horses.In 1944 he took evening classes in art at Nottingham Art School,and a fellow art student, Rhona, became his wife in 1949.After Nottingham,he took a degree at Liverpool College of Art,then in 1950,he took up a teaching post for design and illustration at the Wolverhampton College of Art,giving this up to work as a freelancer in 1956. As a contributor to the satirical magazine Punch,he had his first published work earlier in 1952,which began a 25-year relationship resulting in over 1,500 cartoons,60 of which were used as their front covers.He also had a short period working as a political cartoonist for the News Chronicle from 1956-60, until the paper folded and ceased trading. A first collection of cartoons,'Angels on Horseback',was published in 1957. With and from this,he found his true comic niche with Pony Club girls and their comic ponies,a subject for which he became best-known,and which led to a cartoon strip about such a pair,Penelope and Kipper.[Wiki].
