A page taken from a 1971 diary on which Zacron, designer of the 1970 Led Zeppelin album sleeve ‘Led Zeppelin III’ has drawn a page of doodles and sketches in ballpoint pen. On the reverse side of the page Zacron has handwritten various notes in ballpoint pen and pencil, one of which is dated 5th February 1971 and reads ‘JIMMY PAGE?’. Provenance: from the estate of Zacron, born Richard Drew 1943 – 2012. The artist known as Zacron was born Richard Drew in Sutton, England in 1943. Zacron’s artistic career was intrinsically connected to music and during his artistic training he met first Eric Clapton at Reynolds High School, Acton, London, England and then Jimmy Page whilst at Kingston College of Art. Zacron recalled how he and Jimmy became friends: ‘Jimmy visited my studio, and in his home, we discussed art and music. We decorated our guitars with experimental materials and designs, I made liquid projections using hot oils and strobes linked to the music of Jimi Hendrix’. After winning a scholarship to the Royal Academy of Arts Schools, Zacron studied drawing from January 1965 to June 1967. Soon after completing his artistic studies Zacron briefly became a lecturer at Leeds Collage of Art under Harry Phillips, before resigning the post to found the ‘Zacron Media Centre’ in London's West End. It was after a gig at Leeds University in 1970 that the members of Led Zeppelin met with Zacron to discuss the commission of an album cover for the forthcoming release ‘Led Zeppelin III’, with Jimmy Page championing Zacron’s work. The unconventional approach was also highly complex for production and disruptive, setting back the album release date by two months. It nevertheless coincided with Led Zeppelin’s zenith of fame, they were at this time considered to be the biggest band in the world, and the delay only served to fuel anticipation. Ultimately, sales in the United States alone totalled 25 million copies, making it one of the most iconic covers in rock history. During a career which spanned five decades he made an analytical spiritual exploration of the visual arts, tackling a broad range of media and themes. His work has featured in exhibitions around the world, his art has been collected by legends of the music world and is included in many significant collections. The page measures 13.5cm x 19.6cm (5.25 inches x 7.7 inches). The condition is very good plus.

Arthur WRAGG (1903-1976) Two Christmas Card designs Each mixed media with pencil inscriptions, 26.5cm x 18.5cm.Frederick Roberts Johnson and Arthur Wragg, two friends who met whilst training to become commercial artists, moved together to Polperro in 1924, staying at 'The House on the Props'. They had somewhat contrasting styles which somehow sometimes overlapped; Wragg's style was likened to David Low and Victor 'Vicky Weisz, sharing within his lifetime the same respect and public interest as the two aforementioned. His work was also regularly compared to that of Aubrey Beardsley, though Wragg's own heroes were Cruickshank, Albrecht Durer and William Blake, the latter being someone he was also compared to within his lifetime. Wragg's first book was hugely successful, having to be reprinted three times in one year and it became Book of The Year in America.Frederick Roberts Johnson was a very succesful commercial artist and was often the one who usually went to London in search of commissions for the pair. He often used the name 'Essex' or 'Sax', drawing funnies for Punch, Everyman magazine and Tribune, as well as advertisements for Lyons Tea Shops and producing dustjacket book illustrations for various authors. His style was more varied and experimental, with impressionism, cubism and abstract examples of his work within the sale.
