I've managed to get a few of Tony Smith's articles on Bellamy, written after Frank Bellamy's death Tony did however meet and interview Frank.
Alas his first published work on Frank was his obituary.
This one is from 17th July 1990 and was written
"to mark the 40th anniversary of the legendary Eagle comic" - to you and me that means the Hawk reprint books,
The Adventures of P.C. 49,
Harris Tweed,
Riders of the Range and, of course,
Fraser of Africa .
One particularly interesting feature in this article is a reprint of the rarely seen Bellamy work in the
Football Telegraph or
Pink 'Un, the sporting paper insert for the
Northamptonshire Evening Telegraph. (18 October 1949) "All forms of transport were used by Kettering fans to see - Kettering win"
The readers at the time (1947) would have been familiar with the football clubs' nicknames - see my key on the
NET page- and Tony Smith kindly provides clues in his 1990 article
