Treyer Meredith Evans (born 1889,Chichester.) Son of a dentist,worked as Treyer Evans.An advertising and press illustrator employed by C. Arthur Pearson (1909) and Edward Hulton (1910).He was a bright,stylish illustrator who worked in pen and ink or pencil,often with broad expanses of shading.However his style varied according to his subject - for example,in 'Will You Come As Well' (Milne-like verses about children),he adopted a technique similar to that of E.H. Shepard.He also illustrated a further four other Blyton titles from this series: 'The Mystery of the Vanished Prince' (1951), 'The Mystery of the Strange Bundle' (1952), 'The Mystery of Holly Lane' (1953) and 'The Mystery of Tally-Ho Cottage' (1954).
