Add one to the ‘famous people from Burslem’ lists.

Bernard Hollowood (1910-1981), born in Burslem, became a cartoonist and then the editor of Punch magazine from 1957 through 1968. The magazine is forgotten now except among the over-70s, but Punch was then the leading British humour and spot-cartoon magazine of the post-war period.
