Don Harley original comic art

Donald Eric Harley was born in London and studied at Epsom College of Art, where Frank Hampson visited to give a talk about the Eagle and Dan Dare. Harley soon applied for and got a job in Hampson's studio. He was the backbone of the strip, especially during Hampson's periods of illness, and worked with Hampson, Eric Eden and Joan Porter until the studio was disbanded in 1959 after Odhams Press took over the paper.
