“Nobby” Clark was born in the UK in 1921. After serving in the British Army in WW2 he came to New Zealand in 1952. He worked as an illustrator, writer, graphic designer, art director and painter over the years working on many famous images and brands including TEAL, Chesdale cheese, Formica, Sanitarium, Lion Brown etc. In the 1990s he published several books about Auckland as well as working as a cartoonist for the NZ Herald. An exhibition of his work was held in 2007. His works are rarely seen on the market and these works are delightful, always admired by visitors to our house over the years.
