Fred Basset by Morris A Graham

A bumper fun collection of Fred at his curmudgeonly best for 1998. Scores of cartoons from the Daily Mail's classic Fred Basset strip, featuring 1 of the most endearing and enduring of Britain's cartoon heroes. An authority on slipper gnawing, newspaper collection and postman harrassment, Fred Basset and his lugubrious wisecracks now grace publications worldwide.
Born in Scotland, Alex Graham began selling cartoons to magazines during World War II. He created a comic strip, "Wee Hughie", in 1945 and continued this feature until about 1970 in the Dundee Weekly News. Graham produced two other comics, "Our Bill" and "Briggs the Butler" in 1946. On July 9, 1963, Graham began the comic strip with which he is most closely associated: "Fred Basset". The strip still continues in the "Daily Mail" and "Mail on Sunday", and a book of the Fred cartoons is published every year.
