Harold William Tamblyn-Watts (5 May 1900 - November 1999; Yorkshire, UK)
Born in Settle, Yorkshire, UK, Harold was educated at Southend School of Art and worked as Studio Manager for the Emmett Group in 1935-48. He exhibited watercolours and illustrated numerous books, especially nature and animal books for young children.

He lived in Shirley, Croydon, Surrey, where he died in November 1999. He was survived by a son, Graham. He was predeceased by his wife, May, and a second son, Stuart.

Tamblyn-Watts, who served in both World Wars, earned a brief local infamy in Shirley when a neighbour complained about his bagpipe playing and he had to practice on Shirley Hills; the incident was reported in a national daily newspaper.

During a long and fruitful career he drew both the Gerry Anderson's creation 'Supercar' and 'On The Danger Trail with Grahame Dangerfield' for TV Comic.

'Katie Country Mouse' was one feature he painted for Jack and Jill the pre-school comic. He was also known for his spot illustrations for various Eagle and Girl annuals. Outside the comics field he had a reputation as a skilled wildlife artist.
