        John Ryan Autographed Sketch of Captain Pugwash & Others

        Est: -

        Cartoonist John Ryan is perhaps most famous for his creation Captain Pugwash, a fictional pirate who appeared in a number of children's books, comic strips and television series. Captain Pugwash first appeared in Eagle in 1950 and also appeared regularly in the Radio Times magazine. Captain Pugwash made his television debut in 1957 in a series of short, animated films commissioned by the BBC. During these early episodes, Ryan employed a real-time technique whereby cardboard cut-outs of the characters were moved around on painted backgrounds using levers. The show was broadcast regularly until 1975. In 1998 the pirate returned to children's television in a new series called The Adventures of Captain Pugwash, which used traditional animation methods whereby each frame is hand drawn. This 9½" x 6½" sketch was hand drawn by John Ryan. It shows the head and shoulders of Captain Pugwash and his trusty crew-member Tom the Cabin Boy. The sketch also shows another of Ryan's creations, Harris Tweed, a character in the comic strip Harris Tweed: Special Agent, which appeared regularly in the comic book Eagle. Ryan has handwritten each character's name next to the corresponding sketch. In the lower left corner he has added the notation "P.T.O." On the reverse of the sheet, Ryan has written the following note: "Dear Sarah, Not very good I'm afraid but I am getting OLD! Sincerely, John (Ryan)". Ryan has dated the piece 2008, just a year before he died. This delightful piece is in excellent condition.

        John Ryan Autographed Sketch of Captain Pugwash

        Est: -

        John Ryan (1921-2009) was a British cartoonist who is most well known for creating the popular children's cartoon, Captain Pugwash. Ryan attended Ampleforth College which was a Catholic boarding school. There he was encouraged to draw by Father Sylvester who was himself a former cartoonist. Ryan studied art at the Regent Street Polytechnic in London and went on to become an assistant art master at Harrow School. In 1950, Ryan's Captain Pugwash first appeared in the Eagle comic book, however the character was dropped from the comic book due it being too "childish" for the target audience. The BBC commissioned a Captain Pugwash television series in 1957 which ran until 1966. The character also appeared in the BBC Radio Times from 1960 until 1968. This original sketch of Captain Pugwash by John Ryan measures 5" x 7.5" and is mounted to an overall size of 8" x 11". The sketch shows Pugwash in a full length pose, standing in a field with flowers holding a sword. Ryan has written the title "Captain Pugwash" above the sketch and has added his autograph beneath it. In fine condition.
