Oor Wullie looks aghast - this image was taken from The Sunday Post in Dundee. Oor Wullie is part of the Scottish identity kit - he's as familiar to all Scots as the saltire but unknown elsewhere.
But he's a comic gem, drawn originally by the same draughtsman (Dudley D Watkins) as Desperate Dan.
This screenprint has been officially approved by DC Thomson. I am the first and only screenprinter with permission to use the images of Dennis The Menace and Gnasher in my work.
These are all original screenprints. An original print is a work of art printed by hand, from a plate, block, stone, or stencil (which is the case here - screenprints are made using screen stencils) that has been created by the artist for the purpose of producing the image.
