A Hammersmith artist, author and World War Two pilot whose painting of Chelsea spectators sold for more than £30,000 is selling another work.

Jim Page-Roberts, 83, who lives off King Street, Hammersmith, hit the big time with his painting of the crowd at Chelsea's Fulham Road ground.

He painted The Shed Chelsea Football Ground in 1954, but after a neighbour who worked for Christie's saw it the piece became the star lot at a 2006 auction and sold for £33,600.

Now Christie's has now requested another of his works to include in a sale next Tuesday.

He said: "A year before the sale [of The Shed] we were going to give it away as a wedding present. Luckily the wedding never happened."

Mr Page-Roberts has been a Hammersmith resident for 19 years and is currently working on a series of pastels.
