Andy Capp (Picture 1). Andy Capp cartoon images gallery 1. Andy Capp cartoon pictures collection 1. Andy Capp is a British comic strip created by cartoonist Reg Smythe (1917–1998), seen in The Daily Mirror and The Sunday Mirror newspapers since August 5, 1957. Originally a single-panel cartoon, Smythe later expanded it to four panels. The strip is syndicated internationally by Creators Syndicate. The character is also licensed as the mascot for a line of snack foods (Andy Capp's fries) and a defunct chain of miniature golf courses in Brevard County, Florida. Smythe received the National Cartoonist Society Humor Comic Strip Award for the strip in 1974. Also, various constables, barmaids, barmen, referees, footballers, pub locals and door-to-door salesmen.) Andy is a working class figure who never actually works, living in Hartlepool, a harbour town in northeast England. The title of the strip is a pun, a perfect phonetic rendition of that region's pronunciation of the word "handicap" (which Smythe reportedly chose because a handicap is exactly what Andy is to his hard-working spouse), as well as a reference to the main character's trademark flat cloth cap.

His hobbies include pigeon racing, darts, snooker (his cue's name is "Delilah"), football (which always involves fights with the other players, and frequently ends with Andy being sent off), occasionally cricket and rugby, betting on horses, getting drunk in the local pub (often falling into the canal and being fished out by a constable, and always, seven nights a week, arriving home late as a result), fishing (and not catching anything bigger than a goldfish), womanising, loafing on the sofa, and fighting with his long-suffering wife, Florrie (also known as "Flo"). Andy's iconic plaid cap is always pulled down over his eyes, even when he is seen napping or bathing. He is often unshaven, frequently intoxicated (indicated by a prominent red nose and dishevelled clothing), lazy, freeloading, belligerent and confrontational—but just as frequently lovable (he always refers to Flo as "pet", and will instantly "bop" anyone who dares to be rude to her). He was often seen with a cigarette dangling from his lip until the 1980s Similarly, Andy no longer indulges in fisticuffs with Florrie, because of concerns about the depiction of domestic violence (which was usually portrayed in a highly stylised manner, as an iconic cartoon smoke cloud with fists and feet protruding). Instead, they now attend marriage counselling. Andy Capp (Picture 1). Andy Capp cartoon images gallery 1. Andy Capp cartoon pictures collection 1.
