A little-known artist, Harry Green (1920- ) contributed extensively to Look and Learn in the 1970s and 1980s, illustrating a variety of subjects ranging from historical buildings to football. However, it was as a transport illustrator that he really made his mark in the 1980 with the series "Britain's Railway Wonders". Green also contributed illustrations to
Speed & Power in the 1970s.
His book illustrations include
Architecture (1969),
Architecture: The Great Art of Building (1969),
Discovery of Australia (1969) and
Discovery of South America (1970), some of which were jointly illustrated by Gwen Green who was also a prolific children's educational book illustrator.
Examples of Harry Green's artwork can be found at the Illustration Art Gallery.
