Ronald Searle tribute blog

John Martz | April 27th, 2007

searle.jpgAfter Ward posted a link to some scans of Ronald Searle’s “secret sketchbook” last week, my hunger grew for more Searle drawings, and what a pleasant surprise it was to discover the Ronald Searle Tribute Blog which is packed to the gills with scans of rare Searle artwork, and continues to be regularly updated… you can easily spend hours looking through all the images. I certainly did.

    Hey there!

    Have you heard of this new video lately? Sure, it's a bit political, but it's a throwback to the classic television series in the 70's, the SuperFriends.

    It's pretty funny, and even if I'm not really leaning on a particular political alignment (I'm Filipino, after all.), it's still worth a look.

    Check out The Challenge Of The Super-Duper Friends!

    Thanks for the Searle link! He's still the master of the inky line; satiric & poetic all at once, and funny, too.
  • Love it! He's one of my all-time favs.

    Ronald's work is simply amazing.. I'm glad there's a tribute blog. I will spend the rest of my years reading and looking at it..

    AS A BIG FAN OF RONALD SEARLE I WAS FASCINATED TO FIND THIS WEB SITE FORUM , I COLLECT ALL HIS FIRST EDITIONS AND RARE TITLES , ONE OF THE MOST UNUSUAL THINGS I FOUND WAS THAT RONALD SEARLE PROVIDED ART WORK CARTOONS FOR THE 1960s FILM THOSE MAGNIFICENT MEN IN THIER FLYING MACHINES , ITS WORTH WATCHING THE FILM JUST FOR MR SEARLES CARTOONS ! I TRIED FOR AGES TO FIND ANY THING TO DO WITH THE FILM USING RONALDS ARTWORK - BOOKS ETC ETC BUT NOTHING , BUT RECENTLY I FOUND (AT GREAT EXPENSE !) A COPY OF THE 1965 CINEMA BROCHURE , THIS CONTAINS ALL THE ART WORK BY MR SEARLE PLUS FEATURES FROM THE MOVIE , A VERY RARE ITEM , I BUY A LOT OF STUFF FROM AUCTION SITES AND HAVE JUST BEEN EMAILED THAT THIS RARE BOOK IS BEING OFFERED ON EBAY NOW , I DONT THINK IT WILL FETCH MUCH AS RONALD SEARLE ISNT MENTIONED IN THE TITLE , HAPPY7 HUNTING
