History
Edwin Robertson was born in 1901 and attended The Glasgow School of Art between 1918 and 1921 and again for a final session between 1922 and 1923. Throughout this time he resided at North Craigpark in Dennistoun, east of Glasgow City Centre. His tuition was subsidised by the City Local Authority.
Robertson was an evening student of Architecture during his time at The School, which likely meant that he was on the certificate programme. This course was offered in affiliation with The Royal Technical College and involved an office apprenticeship through The Glasgow Institute of Architects. As such, Robertson's occupation is recorded as 'apprentice architect' throughout his studies. It is likely that Robertson was under the tutelage of Alexander McGibbon, the professor of Architecture in The School at this time, and also the instructor Edward G. Wylie.
