HAVE you heard of Mickey Durling?

He was a sporting caricaturist who had a regular spot in the Gravesend Reporter in the 1970s. Arthur Kubias is researching the artist's history and would love to hear more from News Shopper readers with information.

Apparently Durling started out as a booth artist on Southend Pier and anyone who can help is encouraged to write to Mr Kubias at 2 Poplar Walk, Meopham, Kent DA13 OEB.
