EXTRACTS: Illustrators issue 23 © 2018 The Book Palace (96 PAGES in Full edition)

92 A frieze of images from ‘Jason and the Golden Fleece’ and ‘Tales of the Greeks and Trojans’. The illustrations that the Johnstone twins created for the Greek-themed stories of Roger Lancely Green stand out as being the high point of the Finding Out folk tale adaptations. More on the fascinating lives and career of the Johnstone twins can be found in an earlier feature that we ran in illustrators issue 5. For both features we are indebted to the work and research of Philip Kelleway, whose book on the Johnstones entitled, ‘The Johnstone Twins’ is published by Halstar at £29.99. l
