The Strong Man Phyllis Ginger Snip from Alexander the Circus Pony, her Puffin Picture Book. It took over two years of research and drawing before it eventually appeared. Initially it was planned to be published by John Murray, in a larger format, alongside Ravilious' painting book on submarines. Both those projects were abandoned but the resulting Puffin was one of the series highlights. #phyllisginger #alexanderthecircuspony #autolithography #noelcarrington #ericravilious #thestrongman
