Gulliver Guinea Pig - The Life Aquatic (Original)

This is the unique original Gouache painting by Fred White.

Gulliver dives and explores a shipwreck. A nice page from a Gulliver Guinea-Pig story by Fred White. Gulliver is drawn very much in the style of Gordon Hutchings but the other characters are depicted in a more cartoony-style.

Painted for Playhour, almost certainly in the mid 1960s, and re-used for a page of a Teddy Bear Annual.

The title is hand painted on acetate and the panels have been pasted down onto coloured paper when it was re-published.
