Biography
For almost a quarter of a century after the Second World War the former toolmaker had a professional contract with the Watneys Brewery, the first for a darts player and performed many exhibitions with both his darts and nails.
The first Embassy World Professional Championship Programme in 1978 featured a full page article on his career and a few years earlier Noel E Williamson, the famed darting poet even immortalised the great man in verse.
