Original Jonah artwork drawn and coloured by Ken Reid for The Beano 964 back cover, 7 January 1961. This vintage colour page shows our nautical nemesis marooned in the sewers of Clotville-on-Clyde with typically disastrous results. Indian ink and poster paint on cartridge paper. Framed and glazed. 25 x 21 ins. With The Beano 817, first Jonah strip (2)
Winning Bid: £605

Ken Reid (1919-1987) was introduced to D.C. Thomson by his artist brother-in-law, Bill Holdroyd. His first strip was Roger the Dodger for The Beano in 1953, followed by Grandpa and then for The Dandy he drew Angel Face and Bing-Bang Benny. However, it was with Jonah on March 15 1958 that he illustrated one of the truly great gormless characters of comics. Forever adrift in a sea of maritime madness, Jonah was Ken Reid’s personal favourite and probably his finest work and this "Veteran Of Trafalgar" rightly claimed The Beano back cover for over five years.

Dennis The Menace No 1 of 50 Charity Limited Edition Print (2001) with original margin sketches of Dennis and Gnasher signed by David Sutherland and David Parkes, counter-signed by Beano editor Euan Kerr. The print illustrates the untold story of how Dennis ‘acquired’ his legendary striped jumper!

Longtime Beano artist David Sutherland took over the Dennis strip from David Law in 1971, finally relinquishing the ‘Menace’ to David Parkins in 1998 who immediately introduced us to Dennis’ baby sister Bea (pun very much intended). David Parkins has drawn this strip as a homage to David Law in his style and the original signed margin sketches are on this numbered first edition only.

We are pleased to offer this unique piece on behalf of D.C. Thomson & Co Limited for the benefit of Comic Relief (Charity No. 326568) and Compal will donate the buyers and sellers premium to the charity.

Winning Bid: £440
