*Desperate Dan. A vintage gelatin silver print, 1934, showing a clay model of a Wild West figure with two pistols raised, a few light wrinkles and marks, 31 x 25 cm, mounted on card and identified as Des[perate] Dan in pencil with name of the artist [Hugh] McNeill dated 1934, together with two near-identical vintage silver prints showing three clay models of children with balls of wool, slightly creased, 20 x 25.5 cm, both identified in ballpoint pen to versos, ÔCopley`s knitting model by Hugh McNeill, 1932`, plus one smaller related silver print of a clay model artist painting on an easel, a little wear to extrems., 16 x 11 cm, inscribed in pencil to verso ÔClay Modeling 1933`. These photographs are all apparently of models made by the Manchester born comic illustrator Hugh McNeill (1910-1979). McNeill worked for Kayebon Press art agency from 1927 until the end of the 1930s. He worked on the Dick Turpin strips for Knockout, but is most famously associated with D.C. Thomson`s comic book The Beano from its first issue in 1938. It was in the same year that he created ÔPansy Potter, The Strong Man`s Daughter` for The Beano`s Christmas edition. Desperate Dan was a strip drawn by Dudley D. Watkins from his first appearance in the first issue of The Dandy on 4th December 1937. The model here may well have been an early prototype for what eventually became one of the world`s best loved comic characters. (4)
