At Cottingley Beck, in Yorkshire, 1917, two girls, Elsie Wright and Frances Griffiths, photographed 'fairies'. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle mistakenly gave credence to the hoax by using the images to illustrate an article in The Strand. More on Ilkley Book Fair www.pbfa.org/fairs/ilkley.... 2/2

I recently purchased at auction one of SR Badmin’s sketchbooks. I had to have it because I’d spotted that one of the pages contained a study for an illustration in the Ladybird book ‘Trees’. As close as I’ll probably ever come to owning original Nature series artwork 😊

A small open sketchpad containing a study of trees and the final illustration from the ladybird book, published in 1963, of the page Ilex and Wild Cherry
