Jim Holdaway - Modesty Blaise

Jim Holdaway (1927 - 1970, England) Born in Barnes, London, Jim Holdaway became a freelance illustrator in 1950, working for publishers such as Odhams and Farrington Press. He worked on all types of artwork, adverts, cartoons, book illustrations and covers. His first full length stories were for Gallant Detective in 1952, and then went on to strips for Comic Cuts, and Swift. His first newspaper strip was Romeo Brown in the Daily Mirror. Sadly none of the original art for this strip has survived. This association with Peter O'Donnell led to the creation of Modesty Blaise which he drew from 1963 until his untimely death in 1970. Jim Holdaway art. We have been selling art to collectors for over 20 years, and the most regularly requested art has been Jim Holdaway's fabulous pen and ink artwork for Modesty Blaise, written by Peter O'Donnell. We also have Modesty Blaise original signed artwork by Romero, John M Burns, Patrick Wright and newspaper strip reprints and novels!
