A Buittle woman has produced a landmark book on one of Scotland’s most successful commercial artists – in a labour of love lasting more than 15 years.
Dr Sandy Brewer began researching the life of Tom Curr after a chance chain of events led her to his surviving family.
The artist, who died in 1958 aged 71, produced hundreds of iconic poster images – including the kilted shot putter featured to this day on boxes of Scott’s Porage Oats.
