The full story behind this drawing is on the link below, plus the original rough. It’s his birthday today and I expect he won’t notice this, that is the posting, not the day. I’ve no doubt he’ll be on the look-out for the odd bargain. He’s not called Robin either.
I’ll expect his kids and my sister in law to like this.
Looks a bit like my uncle. I’ll like it too
How kind, he’s actually quite a nice bloke and quite unlike a lot of antique dealers.
I actually recognise him. And it’s several decades since I last saw him. Dave.
This ‘portrait’ is taken from his ‘Flying Jacket Years’, he used to wear what appeared to be a WW2 Flying Jacket that he probably found in some wreckage somewhere. He looks much the same today, without the jacket which eventually perished.
