Last night, Michael Heath, The Spectator’s brilliant cartoon editor, won a lifetime achievement award at the Cartoon Art Trust Awards – and what a lifetime. His first illustrations for The Spectator appeared in the mid-1950s, and have long since become a mainstay of the magazine. To mark this special talent, we’ve pasted a selection of his cartoons, from across the decades, below. So congratulations, Michael. And here’s to the next 55 years.
