Mac 2016
Synopsis
A brilliant compilation of cartoons which some never seen sketches. In the words of Sir Tim Rice: “Day after day Mac brightens the morning with wit and superb draughtsmanship, sometimes making a serious point, sometimes an hilarious one, often both at once. You don't have to believe me, but after you've taken even the briefest look at the wonderful artistry reproduced herein, you will.â€

Reviews
“Mac is, quite simply, Britain’s greatest living cartoonist. Mac’s humour is warm,â€

“In terms of the quality of his drawing and the quickness of his wit, I reckon Mac is without equal.
