History
William Reid was born in 1902 and attended The Glasgow School of Art for the academic year 1917 to 1918 and again from 1918 to 1919. During his time at the school Reid resided at 114 South Woodside Road, in Glasgow's West End. Given his young age we may surmise that this may have been his family home.
Reid's occupation for this period is recorded as 'apprentice litho artist.' As he undertook his studies by evening, this may indicate that he practiced lithography print work during the day. Reid's area of study at The School was Drawing and Painting. As an evening student, he may have been under the tutelage of Professor James M. Dunlop, who taught Anatomy and Professor Susan F. Crawford, who taught Etching. Whether or not Reid pursued his artistic ambitions following his time at the school is unknown.
