Pseudonym of the cartoonist Victor Weisz (1913–66). By birth a Hungarian Jew, he was publishing anti-Nazi cartoons in Berlin in the 1930s and so had a double reason to flee to Britain. He was on the staff of the News Chronicle during the war, then moved to the Daily Mirror. In the last years of his life, when he and *Low were Britain's leading pair of cartoonists, his work appeared weekly in the New Statesman (from 1954) and six days a week in the Evening Standard (from 1958).
