PL editor, David Butcher writes: 

   "The work of Osbert Lancaster is instantly recognisable to those who grew up in the period from the 1930s to the late 1970s through his books, cartoons and designs for opera, ballet and the theatre. Michael Ginisi bought the architectural satire Draynflete Revealed (1949) as a fourteen-year-old.            "Michael later became a serious collector of Osbert Lancaster's work and his article summarises the growth of his collection, including the acquisition of rare material, such as the booklets dropped by the RAF over occupied Europe during the Second World War."
