John Smith
John is the manager of the Chichester Oxfam bookshop which he was instrumental in setting up. His specialist interest is book illustration from 1880-1920, and this has led him into a deep affection for the work of Arthur Rackham, Kay Nielsen, Aubrey Beardsley and Jennie Harbour.
You can read more about John Smith and the presentation on our Speakers page.
We look forward to seeing you all again at Boxgrove Village Hall.
