From The Dandy, issue dated Feb 8th, 1964 |
I'm actually old enough to remember when KEN REID's artwork appeared in D.C. THOMSON comics, before he later became a mainstay over at ODHAMS PRESS, then FLEETWAY/IPC. The original artist of ROGER THE DODGER, he also drew JONAH and GRANDPA for THE BEANO, as well as the adventures of BIG HEAD AND THICK HEAD, which appeared on the back page of THE DANDY every week.
After departing for Odhams, he was replaced by FRANK McDIARMID, who - going by the example below - managed to imitate his style very well indeed.
So, here's another little Christmas treat for all you discerning Kid-ites - two actual Big Head and Thick Head back-page Dandy delights for your personal perusal and appreciation.
