Re: Hello, I'm WaxBadger
I have a friend in East Sussex who became a that has shown me that documentary with Bestall (I believe you're thinking of the one from 1982), along with an interview on some audio tapes which did explain a good amount of information on his life. He really knew how to set the standard for the series ...

Re: Hello, I'm WaxBadger
Right Steve, in the early 1980s there was the Rupert Weekly comics produced by Marvel which ran for 100 issues and largely repeated stories from the annuals as well as rerun stories from Fleetway and Martspress comics, so they aren't really all that glamorous as far as Rupert comics or the 1989 comi...

Re: Archive of comic prices paid on Ebay
The one site that I can think of that shows prices for comics and other goods is Worthpoint although they require a paid subscription. It's also the only site I have seen that archives ebay listings, and I've used it before. Sorry if I'm not much help.

Re: Daily Mail Historical Archive
I would agree with that a great deal, especially since he was a character from the childhood of those who were grown up at the time. William St. John Glenn was also a good artist that kept the series looking bright for as long as he could draw it, earlier in the 1950s there were two other artists su...

Re: Daily Mail Historical Archive
You could if you think others might like to see them. I actually happen to have the whole span of Teddy Tail annuals from the 1948-1962 period and I spent most of last year collecting them. I was browsing newspapers on ebay UK last night and someone was nice enough to show me the panel in a 1956 iss...

Re: Hello, I'm WaxBadger
Yeah, for being a regular newspaper feature I know it can seem odd to comic enthusiasts. The thing is though, a good number of people who gain affection for Rupert prefer to view the series more along the lines of children's literature and not like the more humorous and action/adventure comics that ...

Daily Mail Historical Archive
Hi, I was wondering if any of you here have been able to access that archive. I have no access to it because of my location and no library around me subscribing to it, but I'm curious if any comic strips or panels from the classic comic series Teddy Tail are intact with the pages, or if the archive ...

Hello, I'm WaxBadger
Hi, it took me a while to introduce myself but I had been busy last couple of months. Anyway, I'm an American that has taken a liking to British and European comic characters, and among what I like are most anything of the anthropomorphic animal variety. Rupert is a big one for me as I've collected ...
