Did Scarfe rip off Ralph Steadman or vice-versa? Or were they concurrent?
Edit: Tynan i'm looking at you for an educated answer
Dunno ?
Same era, probably influenced by each others success ? (born the same year, within two weeks of each other / 1936)
Wiki: In the mid 1960s he (Steadman) took a job at the Daily Mail following a Dutch auction for his services with the Daily Express. His decision to work for the Daily Mail led to his estrangement from fellow cartoonist Ralph Steadman, alongside whom he had studied art at East Ham Technical College. Soon after, Steadman was commissioned to illustrate Scarfe and produced an image that was half saint and half Superman, but with a disconnected heart. . . . .
