A blast from the past

I went to see my Mum and Dad at the weekend, and my Dad showed me something long forgotten that he'd dug out from an old load of papers while he was looking for something to do with insurance!

This is about forty years old, and I remember seeing it when I was a kid.  My dad drew it in a lunch break; he was a printer at the time, and working at a company in London that printed food packaging, and this was drawn on an old bit of cardboard he picked up off the floor.  All he had at the time was a blue ballpoint pen and a pencil.

Apparently he was inspired by a picture in a newspaper that someone had left on the canteen table.

I can see where you get your artistic side from, this is amazing, especially as all done with a biro! Does your dad still draw/paint?
