In a seperate update, just noticed this comic from 2006, issue number 3361 April 29th. Jak is holding a 1966 issue in his hands on the cover and apparently the free gift that week was a "1966 World Cup Mini Comic". The base of the comic says "Read the Dandy that hit the streets the very day England won the world cup in 1966"

Does anyone know if this means a mini replica of the 1966 Dandy issue was given away? Has anyone seen this free gift or know of it?

Very eager to get hold of it or at least see it!

I've got the original somewhere not too sure where though...

I just checked my copy it is 8 pages folded up in quaters,reminds me of the cut out over 4 weeks booklets ipc did in the 70s/80s.
