Robert Michael Gibson (1938 – September 2010) was a British caricaturist, artist and illustrator who is best known for creating the illustrations and album art that appears in The Beatles' 1967 LP and EP, Magical Mystery Tour released on Capitol Records and Parlophone Records.[1] Inside the sleeve he also created a text comic based on the film Magical Mystery Tour.[2] He also made graphic contributions to the Beatles monthly magazine The Beatles Book.[3]
Along with George Dunning's animated film set to a Beatles' soundtrack, Yellow Submarine, the insert to The Magical Mystery Tour may be considered a classic artifact of psychedelic art, given its allegorical drug references, its bizarre illustrative style, the use of colourful 'bell-bottomed fonts', the "disconnected", narrative etc.
He died in September 2010.[4]
