It's lovely to see that there are still people that have absolutely no understanding of the worth of an annual! :D :lol: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/265043783443?ul_noapp=true Yeah, I had to take a second look too. And still the P&P is £3.20? I'd at least expect recorded post with that price. :lol:

Cheers mate. Will take a look.

I know I'm late to the Christmas party, but this year had money so bought myself another page of Hammer Halls of Horror "Monster Club" Magazine artwork from 1983 direct from esteemed Horror artist himself, John Bolton. The page #14 featured the stripper taking all her clothes off including her skin,...

Ah, loved watching the Rupert the Bear cartoons as a kid in the 1970s. Bit of trivia: As a Welshman was fascinated once to learn that artist Alfred Bestall himself lived for many years in Wales. Beddgelert in the Vale of Clwyd to be exact. And much of the landscape that featured in the Rupert storie...

Hi all. For the past 7mths during the pandemic have been sourcing art, in particular some rare concept art recently rediscovered. Anyway, cut a long story short. Here's 14 pages of rare Monster Club film concept art that came from the John Bolton Studio. Each page measures 17x14cm and all have subse...

Here are some of the pics taken direct from the listing

Great pictures Shiner.

I've just noticed that Beezer was for my actual date of birth. I was lucky to be born of a Saturday. Ditto. In fact I collect comics that has my DOB. I myself never collected comics for specific dates, but do source ones that feature art that I own. Saying that though, I did a obtain a comic for my...

I’ve picked up the pre-publication test print of Wham 1. Packed full with strips but also with a fair few blank pages where the adverts should be. This has been discussed on the forum before but I would not be surprised if copies were printed and used by the advertising team as samples of the inten...

What a rare find. I think this could go for a lot more yet. Yeah, I agree. It'll probably go to into the late hundreds, especially if two bidders get into a bidding frenzy. The likelihood is, whoever wins wants to marry the free gift up with the issue that they own. I'd do the same if my pockets we...

Cool, thanks tonyf33.

Watching a rare Beano Comic #39 free gift from 1939 on ebay. Holy bash St kids, it's got 8 days left and it's currently £300. 8) https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/rhAAAOSwJCRfjY6y/s-l500.jpg ebay link: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/The-Beano-Big-Bang-Fun-Gun-free-gift-from-issue-36-of-Beano-Comic-April-19...

Spent more than I normally do for a book this morning in a charity shop and that was £6 for the Amalgamated press Billy the Kid book. I liked the look of the book and would have preferred to pay 2 or 3 pounds but what the heck. https://i.imgur.com/bZLmcju.jpg I think they must have had a stricter a...

Hi all! I recently obtained this original Just Jimmy Dandy comic art by Hugh Morren. The strip featured in issue #850 from the 8th March 1958. It's quite a large page too, which was a surprise when it arrived. Hoping to source, as I normally do with any comic art bought, the very issue that the art ...

Yeah, would be fascinating to see how members store their collections. My 1930s, 40s & 50s Beanos & Dandy are all in collector bags and placed in a plastic tub with little bags of anti moisture crystals. Better safe than never, I say. ☺️ The biggest comic haul me and my brother ever had was when a v...

Hey, well done Abacus! Love attending Bootsales too. The bug started when I was a kid. Used go to school summer fetes and later jumble sales looking for comics & annuals with our parents. No joke, me & my brother collected hundreds of comics & annuals in our time. It got to the point where we were r...
