Michael Farrar-Bell

Michael C. Farrar-Bell (1911–1993) was an artist, stained glass and postage stamp designer.

He designed pub signs, then became best known as a stained glass designer as the last head of Clayton and Bell which had been one of the most prolific and proficient workshops of English stained glass during the latter half of the 19th century and he restored the Great West Window of Bath Abbey.

His postage stamp designs included the 1s6d value of the British Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II 1953 stamp issue, the frame around the image of the Queen on two values of the Wilding series definitive stamp issue and the 3d value from the 1965 Salvation Army commemorative issue. ^[1]

He also painted pub signs, and a British Pathe News film of 1956 shows him at work.
