Default Howard Ripley

Slightly hesitant in case he is no longer with us. Can anyone tell me if this expert is still about and if so through what association I may contact him please ?

Hello Charlie

Still with us I'm very glad to say.

He sells his books on ebay from time to time and also on Amazon here - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-li...7888177&sr=8-3

There may be a means of contacting him via their site - you know the sort of thing, ask the seller a question!

Roger

Howard is a somewhat private individual. I do have an address for him. That said, he has never (to my knowledge) released a phone number or email address. In the normal course of events I would seek his permission before passing on his address to you. However, I've no immediate method of contacting him to seek approval. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Dave.

As Peter has alluded to, you could attempt to contact him via the MHS. They should have direct contact with him for publishing correspondence.

Regards,

JT.

I am reliably informed that Howard is still going strong and only receives letters, no email. Sorry, but I don't have an address/

Denis Darmanin who lives in Malta has a Facebook page and illustrates all of Howards articles. You may try him!
