Robert Barlow was active in the 1940’s and three postcards using his work published by the now defunct Scholastic Production Co., Belfast, are the only evidence that he was ever amongst us. Given that Scholastic used exclusively Northern Irish artists for their postcards it follows that Robert Barlow was from that part of the world and somebody, somewhere must know of him? An online search today just brings up my own postings and questions on various forums – a dead end. Judging from the above card and the other two listed on the Wildlife page he was quite an accomplished artist – anybody, please?
