Artist Tony Weare drew "Matt Marriott" for the London
Evening News. He studied drawing at Bournemouth School of Art but
became a trooper in a cavalry regiment where he developed a love
of horses. He was voted strip cartoonist of the year in 1961. This
is a stunning example, circa 1962, by this brilliant artist who was
a master of the genre.
