Ronnie was the cartoonist for the Sports Argus – a popular Saturday sports paper published in Birmingham, England. Every week Ronnie’s cartoons would depict the exploits of the Midland sides, proving a big hit among the Argus’ readership. This website celebrates Ronnie’s work that appeared in the publication.
A selection of Ronnie’s Argus cartoons, were collected and published in “Ronnie’s View“. This book has now become a valued collectable for any football fan. Click the button below to view excerpts from the book.
To accompany the cartoons depicting the weekly shenanigans of the local teams (and the teams they were playing), Ronnie developed a collection of cheeky characters inspired by the traditional history and mythology inherent in the people’s game. All these characters have been further developed into finished artwork. Maybe you can find your favourite in our gallery!
As well as his cartoon work at the Argus, Ronnie is also an artist/illustrator. His work ranges from abstract art to more traditional forms of painting and illustration. More of his work can be seen on his personal website at:
