Jack Glass's work in The Dandy



1964 Dandy Annual The Bobcat Boy




Dandy 1967.


Reprinted in 1974 Dandy



From 1968 Dandy




from 1961
set in the 30's

Jack Glass was in the first Beano comic so a very long career..
also read that his detailled etching made it impossible/difficult to colour..
from The Beano coffee book..
Though The Beezer had his drawing The Black Sapper printed in a few colours..which I'll show in another post..

Its great his work was used..its just very interesting to look at...the figures do run in a unusual way...looking stiff..But that only adds to the charm of his work..a unique style.
