All About Us

Our limited edition prints are steeped in friendship. Our editor and designer, Jacqueline Alexander, went to school with the graphic artist Simon Ecob, and their friendship has lasted too many years to mention!

​

Simon Ecob is an accomplished cartoonist and graphic artist. Producing comic-related content for over thirty years, Simon continues to enjoy a long association with Viz, Britain’s premier “not as funny as it used to be” adult comic, their words, not ours! He is the principal artist on the Jack Black and His Dog Silver series and has drawn numerous other action strips in a retro 1950s/60s British comic style.

​

Simon has produced artwork for a number of children’s books for Buster, published by Michael O’Mara, including the best-selling The Boys’ Book of Survival, The Boys’ Book of Spycraft, The Boys’ Book of Adventure and Boys’ Only! How to Survive Anything. Other books illustrated by Simon include James May’s Man Lab for Hodder & Stoughton, Disgusting Jokes for Kids, and School Jokes for Kids, published by Egmont.

​

Jacqueline Alexander has worked in design communications for over 30 years, and has worked with most of her clients for nearly as long! Heading up ID41, a creative solutions company providing design-led marketing strategies for a broad range of companies and individuals, Jacqueline brings with her strategy analysis and development, creative direction, concept design development and content creation.

Jacqueline has worked with Sir Geoff Hurst for over 16 years helping with digital communications for both commercial and charitable projects. Over the years, Jacqueline has been privileged to get to know Geoff, including his wry humour, and his humility.

​

And while Sir Geoff is immensely proud of the three iconic goals he scored in the 1966 World Cup Final, the first man to do so, he will always tell you that it is the team he represented that means most to him. As the last surviving member of that legendary England team, Sir Geoff is always keen to represent and honour the achievement of the entire squad.

​

“Clearly, I will never forget that day, but it is the camaraderie and respect within the team that I am most proud of, it was our talent as a team that resulted in the win, and our tenacity, we didn’t give up for one moment, in fact, I didn’t even know my third goal had been scored before the whistle was blown until I looked up at the scoreboard during the pitch celebrations!"
