John Batchelor's Career:
John H. Batchelor MBE (1936 - 2019) is an English artist and technical illustrator, arguably one of the best technical illustrators ever, particularly known for his clear and detailed cutaway illustrations of vehicles, military equipment and stamp illustrations. John Batchelor has designed during his career 864 stamps for 49 countries in 25 years which probably makes him the world's premier stamp illustrator. The 49 countries don't include Great Britain, whose Post Office never answered the letters he sent over the years. Batchelor’s stamp designs feature in his 2016 book John Batchelor’s World of Stamps: A Unique Collection. His work also can be seen in many 100's of late-20th-century works on armour, fighting vehicles, ships, firearms, etc. Batchelor's work is particularly sought after by scale model makers for its accuracy. He has also provided illustrations for many magazines such as Radio Times, TV Times and technical interest publications such as Popular Mechanics, Air & Space, and The Aeroplane.
