General Press-Cuttings Files, 1983 - 1998
Scope and Contents
British and international newspaper and magazine press-cuttings, relating in part to Spitting Image and the other activities of Spitting Image Productions Limited and its personnel. Other press-cuttings either contain articles that use images of Spitting Image puppets of celebrities and politicians for illustrative purposes, or merely mention the show in passing.
The majority of the press-cuttings appear to have been gathered by Roger Law and other staff members of Spitting Image Productions Limited. However, there are also cuttings that have been forwarded to SIPL by the company, Durrants Press Cuttings.
