Description

"The nation's favourite cartoonist" - Express

Giles enthusiasts will be thrilled with this latest collection of classic cartoons.

The Giles Annual is a British institution as reassuringly familiar as a red pillar box or a black cab. This is a brand new collection of work from the 20th century's greatest cartoonist, bringing together some of his most celebrated artworks and capturing working people in hilarious, satirical scenes. Hospital staff, council workers, policemen and politicians all get the Giles treatment to bring British life and eccentricity into sharp focus.

Many of the cartoons feature his iconic, dysfunctional family, and are packed with tonnes of detail to pour over.

With 150 artworks and captions to give contemporary perspective, Giles 2025 will delight all of those who love his work and collect the annuals.
About Carl Giles
Carl Giles was born in Islington, North London, on 29 September 1916. After leaving school at fourteen, he initially trained in animation before moving into cartoons, when working for Reynolds News. In 1943 Giles moved to the Sunday Express and Daily Express, eventually replacing Strube and becoming the Daily Express "War Correspondent Cartoonist" with the 2nd Army in 1945. Best known for his Express "family", his cartoons had enormous popular appeal and in 1959 he was awarded an OBE. Giles left the Daily Express in 1989 but continued working for the Sunday Express until 1991. He died in 1995.
