This is the unique original Pen & Ink drawing by Stanley Houghton.

Rob Riley was a comic strip that started in Ranger Magazine (published by Fleetway) before joining Look and Learn after the two papers merged. It concerned the adventures of a schoolboy who attends a Comprehensive School with many adventures highlighting social issues.

The strip was drawn by Stanley Houghton and written by Mike Butterworth, who also scripted another ex-Ranger strip - The Trigan Empire.

This is a later strip featuring Rob as a young Private Detective.
  • Artist Biography
    Stanley Houghton; UK
    Stanley Houghton was one of the comic artists who drew for the British comic magazine All Girl Comics in the 1950s. Girl was a sister publication to Eagle, published by Hulton Press from 1951 until 1960, taken over by Longacre and then by IPC Magazines before being subsumed by Princess in October 1964.

    In the 1960s Houghton drew for Look and Learn magazine ('Rob Riley') and for the British girl's comic June, including the cleverly named comic strip 'Pony Tales'.

    Some of the stories and comics were also collected in bound Girl Annual albums. Stanley Houghton drew 'Belle of the Ballet' (written by George Beardmore), among other stories.
