During the research for this list of Frank Bellamy's work many items were unearthed
that were never published during his lifetime. Some have seen print since as
illustrations for articles on Bellamy and various generous people have some
scattered around the Internet so I suppose they are published, but
hopefully you see why they are in this section
We have decided to list these in alphabetical order based on their 'given'
or assigned title. Until an illustrated book appears, this will be the best we can do.
This section is the hardest of the whole site. If you own or know of the
origin of any of these pieces we would be grateful to hear your story- feedback
