Reginald Pitt 1928-2010
« on: November 23, 2010, 12:43:36 PM »

This may be of interest to some of you, even if you're not familiar with his work.  Here, in Scotland, in the 50's and early 60's, we had Australian comics in our newsagents, thanks to the Commonwealth and I remember buying Yarmak.  I have some comics done by Mr. Pitt and have always enjoyed his work.

It's a shame that not enough attention is paid to some of these comic creators when they are still with us.

I remember seeing his art in Secret Agent Corrigan when he was ghosting Al Williamson for a couple of weeks, I believe he even signed his name on the strips.

Didn't Reginald do that ghosting with his older brother Stanley Pitt or did they both work on the strip separately?

Your right, it was signed Stanley Pitt, not Reginald, but most likely both worked on it as they did on most jobs.
