GEORGE AND ET JACQUES

“George and Jacques” was a humorous historical serial created by editorial cartoonist Adrian Raeside. It ran in the Toronto Daily Star from February 1 to April 13, 1979. It ended because the two French language girls in Victoria who did the translations for Raeside inserted the word “merde” into the strip. There were angry letters to the editor and the Toronto Star became nervous about the strip. “Captain Starship” was then born.

Raeside suspects that starting “Captain Starship” at 3-1 was because it started were “George and Jacques” left off. This seems correct as “George and Jacques” left off a 2-42.

GANES PRODUCTIONS LTD.                                                                                            Location: Various.                                                                                                                Owner/President: Orville Ganes.

It produced graphic educational booklets for various organizations, at least during the 1960’s. Orville Ganes was the company president.

It first appeared in the Toronto City Directory of 1962, and was located at 515 Jarvis Street. Then it was located at 464 Yonge Street, Toronto. According to some of its publications it was located at 50 Front Street in 1960 then 90 Harbour St. in 1961 and at 8 Market St. at an unknown date. In the 1969 TCD it was located at 410 Adelaide St. West, Toronto. In 1971 it was located at 166 Jameson Ave. Toronto. In 1973 it still existed but in 1974 it had disappeared from the T.C.D.

The booklets came in several sizes. The covers and contents were printed on pulp paper. The illustrations and production values were adequate. The illustration work was either done by one artist perhaps Orville himself or by a production line. Although a number of publications like Domtar Construction Materials How To Series do not credit Ganes with producing the booklets given the format it is likely Ganes had a hand in making them.

The most interesting aspects of this under-the-radar company are its longevity, about a decade and a half and the range of booklets it produced. It published booklets in both English and French for corporations, government and non-government organizations located in at least four provinces.

Interestingly enough, at least from 23, April 1966 to 22 October 1966 it published a full page coloured cartoon called “Canada” for the weekend comics supplements in newspapers.

The list of publications below can only be considered a sampling of what they did.
