Carl Giles.
United Kingdom, 1916 to 1995
Ronald "Carl" Giles OBE (29 September 1916 to 27 August 1995), often referred to simply as Giles, was a cartoonist who worked for the British newspaper the Daily Express. His cartoon style was a single topical highly detailed panel, usually with a great deal more going on than the single joke. Certain recurring characters achieved a great deal of popularity, particularly the extended Giles family, which first appeared in a published cartoon on 5 August 1945 and featured prominently in the strip.
