William Giles Baxter information


Drawing of Ally Sloper from the middle of the 1880s.

William Giles Baxter (1856–1888) was a British cartoonist and illustrator. His most noted work, from 1884 until his death, was for the weekly comic Ally Sloper's Half Holiday.[1][2]

Baxter had previously worked for the Manchester-based satiric magazine Momus/Comus before joining the staff at Judy, whose editor, Charles Henry Ross, had created Ally Sloper, considered the first comic hero,[3] in 1867. When Ross sold the rights to Gilbert Dalziel, Baxter was taken on to further develop the character. After his death, the illustrations were continued by W. F. Thomas.
