Giles 2024 by Carl Giles
Giles enthusiasts will be thrilled with this latest collection of classic cartoons. Capturing Giles's trademark style and British humour, the 2024 annual focuses on gatherings, from the pub to sports events to family get-togethers. Fans of Giles will be delighted to receive this brand-new collection, which includes 150 cartoons from the archives of the one of the biggest selling daily newspapers in the world, the Daily Express, whose work led to him being voted the best cartoonist of the 20th century.Carl Giles was born in Islington, North London, on 29 September 1916. After leaving school at fourteen, he initially trained in animation before moving into cartoons, when working for Reynolds News. In 1943 Giles moved to the Sunday Express and Daily Express, eventually replacing Strube and becoming the Daily Express "War Correspondent Cartoonist" with the 2nd Army in 1945.
Best known for his Express "family", his cartoons had enormous popular appeal and in 1959 he was awarded an OBE. Giles left the Daily Express in 1989 but continued working for the Sunday Express until 1991. He died in 1995.
