Fred Robinson (1912-1993)
Posted: 21 Mar 2017, 11:13
Hi,
Who can help me find information on the artist Fred Robinson (1912-1993)?
I know there is an obituary by Denis Gifford in The Independent, 30 May 1993 (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/peopl ... 16178.html).
And there is an entry on the UK Comics Wiki (http://ukcomics.wikia.com/wiki/Fred_Rob ... 1912-1993)), which refers to the obituary by Gifford and to page 146 in Alan Clark's Dictionary of British Comic Artists, Writers and Editors, 1998. I do not know what is in Denis Gifford's Encyclopedia of Comic Characters, 1987, p. 234
I wonder if Gifford ever published an appreciation or a proper biography in his Comic Cuts/ACE-Newsletter or in The Comic Journal. After all, he knew Robinson...
Information by other comics historians or collectors is welcome too.
Cheers,
John Wigmans
