Charles Raymond Bowers

According to his obituary in the N.Y. Herald Tribune, he wrote and illustrated children's books in his later years. For eight years during the 1930s he lived in Wayne Township, N.J., and drew cartoons for the 'Jersey Journal.' According to this source, when he became seriously ill in 1941 and was unable to fulfill his contracts, he trained his wife Winifred Leyton Bowers to draw in his place.

In France he was known as "Bricolo." When several of his films turned up in Europe in the 1970s, this was how his name appeared in the credits and on the film can labels, and it took a considerable amount of investigative work before the identity of "Bricolo" was discovered.
