Джон С. Смит (анг. John S. [Shaw?] Smith; 1921-2010) - британский художник-маринист, плакатист, иллюстратор. Кристофер Дикс в своей книге "История пассажирского лайнера в открытках" (A Postcard History of the Passenger Liner by Christopher Deakes. Mystic Seaport Museum, 2005) вскользь сообщает, что Джон С. Смит получил образование художника-графика, а во Вторую мировую войну служил в Королевском флоте. После войны художник работал как плакатист, станковый живописец и публиковался в периодических изданиях. Особо хочу отметить иллюстрации Джона С. Смита в познавательном еженедельнике для юношества "Лук энд лёрн" (анг. Look and Learn; рус. Смотри и учись), где его потенциал художника-иллюстратора раскрылся с небывалой до того силой.
