Product Description

Fred Basset is without doubt the acknowledged authority on slipper gnawing, newspaper collection, and postman harassment, and his wonderfully dry wisecracks now grace publications worldwide. This is another top-notch collection of cartoons from the Daily Mail's classic Fred Basset strip, featuring one of the most endearing and enduring of Britain's cartoon heroes. The Fred Basset books are collector's items, and sell out each year.

Editorial Reviews

About the Author
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.

A MUST for basset owners4
Anyone who has ever owned a basset hound SHOULD collect Fred Basset books! When a cartoonist is required to come up with something funny 365 days a year, a few are bound to be duds, but this compilation from 2005 is good, as usual.
