Henry Mayo Bateman was born in Australia in 1887 the son of an English shipper. The family returned to England in 1889. He left school at 16 to study drawing at the Westminster School of Art and Goldsmiths College. In his late teens he produced hsi first humourous drawings and caricatures for "Tatler", "Sketch", Punch" and "Radio Times". He joined the army during the First World War and was invalided out in 1915 with rheumatic fever. Bateman was one of the higest paid cartoonists of his day and produced a considerable amount of work advertising Guiness, among others. His most famous drawing "The Man Who..." series of social gaffes and faux pas first appeared in "Tatler" in 1912. Working in pencil, pen, ink and water-colour, he was a master of the cartoon story without words. He gave up cartooning in 1939 to concentrate on painting and died in 1970. "The Prion Cartoon Classics" are an on-going series show-casing the finest and funniest comic cartoonists of the 20th century from Britain, Europe and the United States.

Review :
Many who use the phrase "like a Bateman cartoon" to describe a social faux pas are too young to remember the heyday of the artist himself. Despite this, the term remains in regular usage 30 years after Henry Mayo Bateman died, 60 years after he gave up cartooning to concentrate on painting and 90 years after he began his famous 'The Man Who.' series of drawings. These depicted people committing awful gaffes - 'The Boy Who Breathed on the Glass at the British Museum' being among the most famous. Over his 50-year career as a cartoonist for magazines like Punch and Tatler, he was, however, responsible for a wider range of work than is now realised, and this welcome collection gathers together some of the best of Bateman's art, well-known and more obscure.
