This golf cartoon was originally in color, this is the only reproduction I still have.

Misunderstanding on the golf course with a perceived egg - Golf Cartoon by Ian Marsden

It was created using a pen and ink and gouache on D’Arches watercolor paper.

It depicts a bunch of highly distrustful birds who have ganged up on a poor golfer somewhere in Scotland. Their suspicion seems to be that it is not a golf ball at all but rather an egg he might be playing with.

It was published in the Swiss Nebelspalter magazine in 1991 and was exhibited at the

4th International Cartoon Biennale in Davos, Switzerland
(22. July - 22. August 1992 Kongresszentrum Davos)

The original was purchased at the Cartoon Biennale Davos by well-known Swiss media personality, actor, comedian, writer, producer Hansjörg Bahl and is in his personal collection.
