[1] Salas was one of the first cartoonists to bring eroticism to Spanish publications in the form of semi-nude girls, tempered with irony and sarcasm during the dictatorship of General Francisco Franco.
That same year he started contributing on the TV journal Todo Television, and he also created a syndicated panel series, "Don Teleneco", in which he satirized "couch potatoes".
He began working for the daily El Diario de Ferrol in 1972, and a year later he contributed cartoons to Heraldo Español, in the province of Aragon.
In 2005 he was awarded the international prize Curuxa De Honra,[3] given by the Museum of Humor in Fene, in Galicia, Spain.
Salas is listed in the World Encyclopedia of Cartoons by Maurice Horn (Chelsea House Publishers (Philadelphia).
