Giorgio Cavallo

Giorgio Cavallo

Moncalieri, 1927-1994. One of the greatest Italian comedians of the 20th century. Witty, refined, sarcastic enough, excellent designer, always biting but with grace. Born in Turin and adopted in Bordigo, he was one of the first visitors to the Show, becoming a point of reference for everyone. In 1959 he won the Palma d'Or Trophy for Humorous Drawing and in 1974 for Illustrated Literature/Graphic Novel: “Proposte proPoste”.
With him, an important innovation was also born that became tradition: having the winner of the Palme d'Or for Humorous Drawing with a free theme design the following year's poster.

Salone Internazionale dell'Umorismo

The event could not have lasted for over fifty years without the contribution of numerous "volunteers" and "precepts" who brought enthusiasm and desire to do whatever the task received, with nineteenth-century shifts! From the choice of the drawings, to the preparation of the panels (always the same every year), to the posting with various pins of the hundreds of drawings up to the presence on stage.

We therefore want to thank, in absolutely no order but with equal contributions, all those who come to mind, apologizing if we miss some, but we are ready to fix it!
