Cartoon Museum

Holborn Tube Station (map)

Selected By: Robert

Come along on Saturday 10th April at 1pm for a trip to the Cartoon Museum!

About the museum
The museum which opened in 2006, features over 1200 drawings of comic strips, caricatures and political cartoons from the 18th century to the present day.

The museum has drawings by Steve Bell and Matt to Hogarth and Gillray, Giles and Heath Robinson to favourite comic characters like Andy Capp, Dennis the Menace, the ‘Viz’ bunch and Roy of the Rovers.

Entry to the museum is £5.50 , but if you are a member and have your 'Culture Card', you will get a 20% discount on entry.

We will be meeting up at Holborn tube station, inside the station, near the ticket barriers.

Afterwards we will be heading to 'The Old Crown pub', 33 New Oxford Street, click here for a map...

If you can't see the group at the station, please call.

Hope to see your there.

Regards

    Great collection of cartoons and illustrations by Ronald Searl. A trip down memory lane too to see comic strips from the Beano, Dandy and Viz.

    Plenty to see and the opportunity for lessons. The limited space was quite busy but with a little patience and planned moves all was there to be seen. We had a debrief later in a local pub.
