Cartoon Museum update

Well, after a visit to the Cartoon Museum, my earlier doubts have been dispelled. It’s very well done, and it's great seeing so many varied examples of cartooning on display. And there certainly seems to be plenty of people interested. Apparently they’ve been getting 450 people through the door on Saturdays – quite impressive, particularly for such a small venue. I think also that an important aspect of the museum is that it raises the profile of cartooning in this country and provides a focal point for the public and the media. So get along, support the gallery, and let’s hope its great start continues.
