This collection contains almost 3500 original artworks, 6600 original Flook strips, over 5000 cuttings and even a plastic Flook toy!
The collection includes work from the 1940s-1970s. It is made up of donations from the artist, material on loan from Associated Newspapers, independent donations from members of the public, and material from Punch magazine.
The collection is only partially catalogued, so please email us at cartoons@kent.ac.uk if you would like more information on the collection. We also hold a selection of newspaper cuttings of Fawkes' work. These can be found on the BCA catalogue.
