“It must be true, it was all in the papers”- Denys Parsons
I found this true delight when I was browsing in the depths of a second hand bookshop in search of inspiration, and I simply couldn’t resist it! This 1950’s gem contains a selection of comical misprints from newspapers, magazines and books. A charming and delightful array of illustrations by Ronald Searle enhances the humorous tone of the book. It seemed fitting to discover this during the process of dissertation writing and understanding the importance of proof reading. These are fine examples where simple errors have completely altered the content of a written passage.
