Early Years
Bartlett was born in Balaghat, India and moved to England at the age of nine. He captained Dulwich College for three seasons. In 1933 - his last season for the school - he hit two double hundreds in successive weeks and set a Dulwich record of 228 against Mill Hill ( the record stood until 2006, when Arthur Mitchell hit 230* at a lower age group ). He won blues at Cambridge for three years and in 1936 captained them in the Varsity match. After a few matches with Surrey, he settled down as an amateur at Sussex.

“There is a relationship between cartooning and people like Miró and Picasso which may not be understood by the cartoonist, but it definitely is related even in the early Disney.”
—Roy Lichtenstein (b. 1923)
“Come Vitus, are we men, or are we children? Of what use are all these melodramatic gestures? You say your soul was killed, and that you have been dead all these years. And what of me? Did we not both die here in Marmaros fifteen years ago? Are we any the less victims of the war than those whose bodies were torn asunder? Are we not both the living dead?”
—Peter Ruric, and Edgar G. Ulmer. Hjalmar Poelzig (Boris Karloff)
