Gigantic Gilbert, the Great Blue Whale

Description

Gigantic Gilbert, the Great Blue Whale is quite literally the biggest music fan in London. He manages the sound department archives at the library – a job that requires immense patience, impeccable hearing and flippers that can handle cassettes.

His personal passion is marine recordings. Many come from his friend Gobfrey Whale Shark, choirmaster and deep-sea shanty collector. Every few months, he sends over a tape marked “urgent”: usually an out-of-tune humpback chorus or a particularly spirited rendition of “My Barnacle Lass”. Perhaps you could share your favorite tune with him, too?

Gigantic Gilbert, the Great Blue Whale measures approx. 127 x 112 cm /50″ x 44″ (l x w).
