Possibly the funniest book in all of art history, this much-anticipated book is now available to purchase in a limited edition print run.

Art director and illustrator Chris Barker started a viral phenomenon on Twitter with his series of hilarious and irreverent artwork of UK light entertainment from the 1970s, ’80s, and ’90s mashed up with famous artworks from across the centuries. If you watched any TV in the UK during this period, you will love this book.

With a foreword by journalist and author Caitlin Moran.
