Paul Corballis obituary
Laura Corballis
The Guardian, Saturday 24 September 2011

*** begin quote ***

Paul Corballis was the model for the Jolly Butcher pub sign, in Staines, Middlesex.

My father, Paul Corballis, who has died aged 77, was an American anglophile who ran a travel agency in the US specialising in the “Great British pub crawl”. He was in his element as a tour leader – he explored London with an eye for the odd and the obscure, working up an offbeat tour of the city for visiting friends long before making it his work. He was at one with Samuel Johnson’s sentiment that a man tired of London must be tired of life.

Paul certainly never tired of the British pub and kept a record of every one he ever had a pint in. His lifetime total was nearly 3,000 – a daunting achievement, given that return visits didn’t count. As each 1,000 mark approached, he touted the opportunity for a party and publicity around all the breweries, and chose the one that sounded most fun. In 1988, he published Pub Signs, a record of his photographic skills. He had become friends with the sign painter George Mackenney, and modelled as the Jolly Butcher for the eponymous pub in Staines.

[JR: I wish that the print industry would get with the program. You can use Google to gather subscriptions. There’s a fortune to be made for the first person who makes micropayments easy. That is if I could have read the article for a few pennies, I’d have done it. For an expensive subscription, not likely. Current publishers are clueless.]
