Does anyone here have a copy of the Valiant Summer Special 1970 (the one with the Wild Wonders hang gliding on the cover) and if so could you tell me what stories were in it? I remember getting it during that years summer holiday (although I can't remember if I was in Skegness or Great Yarmouth) but, like most of my comics from that time, it's long gone.
Thanks in advance for any info you can supply.

Hiya Mel:
I checked my archives and sadly the closest I I have is the 1969 Special, with the Wild Wonders* featured on-cover, on a water-ski set-up eating ice-creams.........love that charming 2/6 price tag!
Sorry I can't help but I hope someone else can.......
* At least, I think it's the Wild Wonders.......

Re: Valiant Summer Special 1970
Thanks ISPYSHHHGUY and Kashgar for your replies. There was one story that I have a vague memory of that I always associate with this summer special. Looking at the list I think it must be the Kelly's Eye story. I just remember an old house with secret passages featured in it but I might be on the wrong track completely (as I mentioned in my first post I can't even remember which holiday resort I was in when I bought it).
I'll be at the LFCC in a couple of months so I'll be searching the stalls again for it.
Thanks again for you help.
