Occupation Rupert was a competent artist painting both in oil and water colour. But, having attended art school, he found he could not make a living painting. He turned to sign writing - occupation on his Marriage Certificate (1932). His occupation on his son's (Neville) Birth Certificate in 1936 was stated as a clicker (one who cuts out leather for a shoemaker). He later turned to his hobby of horology to make a living. Just after the second world war he set up as a watchmaker and jeweller. Working with illuminous paint, so that one could read the time in the dark, probably contributed to his early death. |
