James “Jim” Ratigan was a London fan and artist active in the 1950s and 1960s. He was married to fellow fan Dorothy Ratigan and was in charge of publicity for the 1952 London SF Con.
Ratigan was a talented artist and had cover art on several issues of Nebula between 1955 and 1958.
A note on the surname: contemporary fan publications used both 'Ratigan' and Rattigan'. Rob Hansen theorises that the former is correct as this is the name used on Dorothy's apazine Satan's Child and presumably she typed this herself. However, Eye #4 which was co-edited by Jim uses the name 'Rattigan' and this is the name used on the cover credits for Nebula and thus by ISFDB.
- Eye [1954-55] (co-editor with others, #4 only)
- 'Our 'Zine [1952] (one-shot, co-editor with others)
