Hyacinth Pink James Fitton Illustration from Stella Mary Peace’s children’s book for Alan Wingate, who also published an Enid Marx children’s book in the same year. Fitton was a founding member of the AIA, one of the three ‘Jimmies’ and also a prolific poster designer, for London Transport, The Ministry of Food, and Ealing Studios. I’m not sure if he illustrated other children’s books, but this is the only one I’ve come across. Lithographed at the Baynard Press. #jamesfitton #baynardpress #frankpick #ministryoffood #ealingstudios #posterlove #hyacinthpink
