The comic characters of TBO in sa Pobla

Can Planes in sa Pobla is holding until August 31 an anthological exhibition dedicated to the illustrator, Marino Benejam Ferrer.

Marino Benejam Ferrer (Ciutadella, 1890 - Barcelona, 1975) lived in Barcelona from his youth, collaborating for over fifty years with the humorous comic TBO. His drawings and jokes gave life to such well known characters as the Ulises Family -one of the most popular families in postwar Spain- Melitón Pérez, Eustaquio Morcillón and Babalí, amongst others.

The original drawings that are being presented in the exhibition make up part of the private collections of Lluís Giralt, Marcel·lí Mora and Francesc Regàs.

The exhibition is organised by the Fundació "Sa Nostra" and it has already been presented in Ciutadella, Maó, Eivissa, Formentera and Palma. The comic characters of TBO reach now Pollença, as they reached Palma, within the Còmic Nostrum 2002.

Entrance price: adults 3 €, youngsters and pensioners 1,50 €

Times:
- Tuesday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.
- Sunday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
- Monday closed
