James Bailey Cartoons

After serving in the 9th Battalion of the East Lancashire Regiment, in Salonika during the Great War, James found employment with Burnley Corporation's parks department. He was responsible for the laying out of Ightenhill Park and designing several regimental crest carpet beds. He was also a very accomplished artist and a book of his cartoons is now in the possession of Towneley Hall (click on the titles below to see the cartoons)

If anyone has any further information on James (or a photograph), I would be delighted to add it to the site
