Michael Hubbard's personal Art Reference Folder for the JANE comic strips.
Bumper COLLECTION of Newspaper Reference Comic Strips!
Michael Hubbard was the JANE artist that followed Norman Pett!
In our opinion, Hubbard was the best JANE artist ever.
This is a Bumber Folder featuring comic strips of Spotlight on Sally, Rip Kirby, Judy and Paul Temple.
The majority of Reference comic strips are SPOTLIGHT ON SALLY drawn by Arthur Ferrier.
Indeed the folder is marked SALLY - see pics.
Clearly Ferrier's work was the biggest inspiration for Michael Hubbard.
The comic strips are pasted onto cards in most cases but there are plenty of loose newspaper strips. There are approx. 67 items/pages/cards/paper strips loosely gathered within the folder.
We estimate this folder originated in the 1940's and was a working Artwork reference for Michael Hubbard during the 1950's when he was working on the JANE strip for the Daily Mirror.
Arthur Ferrier was an acknowledged artist and forerunner of Daily Mirror's JANE with his previously successful Spotlight on Sally strip. It is packed with 'girlie' artwork by Arthur Ferrier which would have been useful for the JANE artist as invaluable reference.
Final Note from the ArtPrestige StudioThis is from our research collection library for those interested in Comic Strip Art.
We purchased this folder following the passing of Michael Hubbard and a house clearance in Kent.
