Scope and Contents

This is a collection of Nichol's comic strips and cartoons from 1960 to 1980. Nelson Ball, the bookseller comments "There is a serious error in this book in the titling of the final sequence which should be "The Lives & Loves of Captain George" and not "John Cannyside" as titled. The sequence is actually based on an interview of George Henderson, the proprietor of Memory Lane [book store and publisher] in Toronto. [Note: Most of the crossed through names on page 294 are pseudonyms used by Henderson for the pornographic novels he wrote, published in the USA by Knight Volumes, Target Novels, Lantern Books, Candlelight Books and Neva Paperbacks from 1964 to 1968]. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
