Melbourne cartoonist Geoff “Jeff” Hook died yesterday aged 89. He was best known for including his signature hook anywhere on his cartoon.

His work was generally about daily life while another top artist Ron Tandberg specialised on political cartoons. ---

Very sad, was always a challenge to search for his hook. He did a series of kids books for each VFL team. Many cartoons were set at Doorub railway station, Hook’s local spelt backwards, Burwood. When the Herald merged with the Sun, Hook was relegated to Sundays with Mark Knight becoming the daily cartoonist. Here’s Knight’s tribute. > ---

Jeff Hook’s cartoons appeared not only on The Sun and the Herald Sun, but also RoyalAuto (RACV member magazine). ---
