Looks like lots of people are searching for Dan. I am searching for him because he has been part of my life via a print of one his incredible paintings, which has hung on my wall for over 40 years. El Pueblo, Unido, Jamas Sera Vencido The Workers, United, Will Never Be Defeated. This poster has a potent emotional connection to my mother, who was the leader of the Labour Party in a small town in the south coast of England in the late 70s- early 80s. She died in 1995 due to primary progressive MS but became a disability rights activist and was on 23 committees until her death. The poster hung on her bedroom wall and now hangs very poignantly and proudly in my lounge. It is one of my most treasured possessions. However, it is sadly fading and so I’m trying to find a way to purchase a copy of the print. Any advice or help would be very gratefully received.

I am trying to get in contact with Dan Jones who starred with me on a hot vinyl sofa in Ealing Studios in 2003 with Bernice and Mischa Goldman filming for ‘This Morning’. I have out-takes of that time which are hilarious and would like to send Dan a copy. I wanted to send one to Mischa but sadly learnt he had died. Please get in touch.

I only recently found the out-takes on a video – my son worked for Channel 4 at the time and managed to get them for me, they are now on DVD.

A Bathonian by birth, I have been a lover of the East End for 25 years and stay at St. Katharine’s in Limehouse every winter. Dan Jones captures the history and culture of East London life like no other. The viewer can believe that every character depicted represents real people. My favourite is ‘Last Supper at St Botolph’s, Aldgate. Rev Malcolm Johnson preaches to the homeless at Easter 1982.’

I have known Dan for over 37 years. He was a regular visitor to our school “Blue Gate Fields” where I attended along with his two sons. An awesome chap who is passionate about all his art and I have been fortunate to have a copy (which I retain today in mint condition, signed by Jackie Robertson) of Inky Pinky Ponky for which Dan’s illustrations are quite prominent. You wont meet a nicer bloke in your life. His art is testament to a lifetime of hard word and it’s shows in his quite unique artwork. I have also been fortunate enough to see some of his artwork in an unfinished state before any other member of the public had seen it. Thank you for the wonderful art Dan, may it keep coming for many years.
