Believe it or not... on the 4 May 2009, it was 30 years since Margaret Thatcher was elected Prime Minister. The Cartoon Museum shows us how those years looked - as seen through the pens of the worlds top cartoonists!
Believe it or not... on the 4 May 2009, it was 30 years since Margaret Thatcher was elected Prime Minister. The Cartoon Museum shows us how those years looked - as seen through the pens of the worlds top cartoonists!
To commemorate the anniversary the Cartoon Museum has put together an exhibition of satirical sketches from across the political spectrum. Guest curated by Guardian cartoonist Steve Bell and former Conservative Education Secretary Lord Baker, the collection features cartoons from throughout Mrs Thatcher's political career.
...This has been our first visit to this interesting little museum, and very enjoyable it was too!
It was fantastic to see original artwork from the two masters of vicious scrawling - Ralph Steadman and Gerald Scarfe. Top marks!
