Hardcover. Condition: Good. Robin Jacques (illustrator). [8], 267, [1] pages. Illustrations. Tabular information. Index. Color portraits on Title pages of Lord McGowan and Sir Ernest Oppenheimer. Cover has some wear and soiling. Robin Jacques (27 March 1920 - 18 March 1995) was a British illustrator whose work was published in more than 100 novels and children's books. He is notable for his long collaboration with Ruth Manning-Sanders, illustrating many of her collections of fairy tales from all over the world. In much of his work, Jacques employed the stippling technique. Jacques (born Jaques) was the son of World War One pilot Robin Jaques and his wife, Mary. His sister Hattie Jacques became a well-known actress. When his sister added a 'c' to her surname, he did as well. Jacques taught himself to be an artist and began working in an advertising agency in his teens. Although he had no formal art training, he enjoyed drawing and used anatomy books, items in the Victoria and Albert Museum, and objects in his surroundings for his instruction. Jacques was art editor for Strand magazine and art director for the Central Office of Information. He began teaching at Harrow College of Art in 1973 and at Canterbury Art College and Wimbledon Art College in 1975. Jacques was prolific: he illustrated over 100 novels and children's books from the 1940s to the 1980s. His work is notable for its detail and expressive characters. A. P. Cartwright was a noted author who frequently wrote on South African topics. AECI Limited (JSE: AFE) is a South African chemicals group. The company was registered as African Explosives and Industries (AE&I) in 1924, with its headquarters in Johannesburg. It was formed as the result of a merger between the South African interests of Nobel Industries of the United Kingdom and the manufacturing arm of De Beers Consolidated Diamond Mines of Kimberley. The company's primary purpose was to provide blasting explosives and detonators to South African gold and diamond mines but AE&I was also the only South African producer of phosphatic fertilizer. In 1944 the company was renamed as African Explosives and Chemical Industries (AECI). Presumed First U.K. Edition, First printing. Seller Inventory # 83135
