He was a superb artist who could capture a performer´s likeness and entertain you at the same time. To watch the DVD, The Line King, adds depth to his legend. Not merely an artist, he was a character, a corker, a real piece of work. He makes our current crop of political cartoonists look like also-rans. If you´re interested in art or the stage, your library is not complete without one of the books of his drawings. The DVD is frosting on the cake.. And summed up by saying The Line King.
