Hi Ronnie (welcome btw ;D )
I think that they maybe signed Moerman. Have a look here: http://www.ismoyo.com/labels/vintage.html Scroll down a bit and you will see some of a very similar design.

Ooer, J. Moerman is a lady you know. Her name is Jaklien Moerman. ;D

She appears to be Belgian, from what I can find out. She was a teacher in Lauwe and she loved drawing and gave art lessons to the kids. She then went on to illustrate children's books, not even sure if she wrote/writes books too, as I am still trying to find out more about her.
I will be back 'ron, if I find out something more ;) :D

Go on Della - good work , i didnt realise that i wrote the ladys name wrong (i.e left the m out) i had seen the ismoyo website thanks.
Do you know what i like them even more , now that i know they were done by a lady ! Go Della :clap:

I can't find out when this lady was born, or if she is even still alive.
The earliest date that I can find on her is 1968, when she exhibited in Belgium. The earliest book that I can find, which she did illustations for in 1972. She was also co-author for a few books (all children's books) and the last date that I can find, for a book, is 1989.
Seeing as one of the ladies, interviewed about her own exhibition and who talks about her fondly, was one of her students in primary school and that particular lady has already retired, I am thinking that Jaklien (pronounced Sha - clean) is probably no longer with us.
I have exhausted nearly all of the hits on google.nl and .be and this is the best that I can do, Stu. :thd:
