About Reg Carter
- Reginald Arthur Lay Carter (6 December 1886, Southwold, Blything, East Suffolk - 24 April 1949 in Cuckfield, Sussex) was a British cartoonist. Carter created the cartoon ostrich Big Eggo that appeared on the front cover of the first Beano.
- On 30 July 1938, the cover strip featuring Big Eggo was drawn by Carter.
- Carter worked for the Beano drawing Big Eggo and other strips until his death in 1949. Also famous for two sets of humorous postcards entitled Sorrows of Southwold.
- These affectionately caricatured the three foot gauge Southwold Railway, which was noted for its idiosyncratic locomotives, carriages and leisurely mode of operation.
