With the start of the Second World War in 1914 Heath Robinson observed that “There was now no demand for purely artistic productions, for new editions of Shakespeare or other classics”. He was then dependent on humorous work for his income. However, from about 1925 respite from the constant need to be funny came from time to time with commissions to provide serious illustrations to short stories and articles in Nash’s Pall Mall Magazine and its sister publication Good Housekeeping.
The exhibition will include illustrations for stories by Richmal Crompton, J. B. Priestly & Gerald Bullett and John van Druten, an English playwright and theatre director.
He developed a distinctive style for these illustrations, very different from his earlier drawings and adapted to the two-colour printing process used for magazines of the time. He also produced a number of full-colour designs for the covers of magazines.
Another artist who was best known for his humorous work, but who also provided illustrations for Nash’s Pall Mall Magazine was Lesley Illingworth. The exhibition will include three examples for his work.

Pinner Local History Society - Pinner’s World War I VAD Hospital and its Nurses
2024-06-06 20:00 - 22:00 | Pinner Village Hall, Chapel Lane, Pinner, Middlesex, HA5 1AA, United Kingdom
Talk By Thamar MacIver.
During the First World War, Pinner people funded and ran a hospital for wounded soldiers. Administration, nursing and domestic support were almost exclusively carried out by local women volunteers, often from affluent households, while supplies were often provided by Pinner tradespeople. Thamar will discuss how this was organised and tell us about those involved.

Visitors are very welcome: suggested donation £3.
