Ginger Meggs, the red-headed Aussie schoolboy who has delighted newspaper readers around the world, turns 100. Created by Sydney artist and illustrator Jimmy Bancks, Ginger Meggs first appeared in the Sydney Sun newspaper in 1921. Fame soon followed and Ginger Meggs became Australia’s most successful comic strip, appearing in newspapers around the world. When Jimmy Bancks passed suddenly in 1952, his work was continued by other talented illustrators, most recently Jason Chatfield from 2007.
