The two colour pieces above (Tiger and Raccoon) appear to me to be for publication rather than the usual sketches, but I have no idea where! [UPDATE: The tiger appeared in Everybody's 29 October 1955 and the raccoon appeared in Everybody's magazine (17 March 1956)]
The three colour pieces below all come from M. D. Hillyard (Mary Dorothea Maitland Hillyard) books published by Blackie and Son in the 1930s and 1940s about a family and their travels, predominantly in a caravan. I'll blog more on these books in due course
