Ex-Sun cartoonist Rigby 'a true legend'

Paul Rigby, whose distinctive cartoons were a feature of The Sun in its earliest period under Rupert Murdoch's ownership, has died in his native Australia, aged 82. Every Rigby cartoon contained his trademark figures of an urchin and a dog. In the mid-1970s he joined Murdoch's New York Post, later switching to the rival Daily News. John Hartigan, ceo of the Murdoch group in Australia, today called Rigby "the master" cartoonist and "a true legend." (Via The Australian)
