'Tell Me Why' magazine's Last of the Mohicans



I am really pleased to find these images on the web. Basically this UK magazine 'Tell Me Why' I used to get as a kid and this strip by Giovannini was inspirational - the picture of a fort made a great impression on the 8 or 9 year old me. Go to this blog to see more - be sure to look at the full image.
