Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. PONT (Graham Laidler, 1908 - 1940) (illustrator). 1st Edition.

This book, simply titled "PONT", is a selection of Laidler's inimitable cartoon art that was originally published in "Punch". It's easy to see why he had an influential effect on other cartoonists. The book has an excellent preface by English cartoonist-artist Fougasse (Cyril Kenneth Bird).
