Culled from the pages of
Vintage ‘Film Fun’ Annuals and Comics.
for the star and producers.
His 1947 Butchers Films production ‘When You Come Home’ was the inspiration for his inclusion in ‘Film Fun’. He appeared in the comic for the first time that same year with the strip continuing until 1955 two years after he had made his
last film ‘It’s a Grand Life’ and two years before he died.
‘Film Fun’ was published by Amalgamated Press who had an in-house stable of talented artists. Randle was first caricatured by Harry Parlett who had worked many years for Amalgamated Press. His two sons George and Reg Parlett also continued in the family tradition at the same firm.
To mark the fiftieth anniversary of Frank Randle’s death many of the comedian’s ‘Film Fun’ cartoon strips have been brought together for the first time
in this publication.
