“cartoonist”

Donald McGill.
United Kingdom, 1875 to 1962
Donald Fraser Gould McGill (28 January 1875 to 13 October 1962) was an English graphic artist whose name has become synonymous with the genre of saucy postcards, particularly associated with the seaside (though they were sold throughout the UK). The cards mostly feature an array of attractive young women, fat old ladies, drunken middle-aged men, honeymoon couples and vicars. He has been called 'the king of the saucy postcard', and his work is collected and appreciated for his artistic skill, power of social observation and earthy sense of humour.
