Hope this is the right forum, first of all. This comes about after a chat with my Dad in which neither of us had an answer.

When did the character Primrose Patterson first appear in the Oor Wullie comics?

I remember being there during my childhood reading in the 90s. Dad thought she was around before that, but Google did not provide an answer, and we were hoping you great people could.

Thanks in advance!

I want to say she has been in Oor Wullie from the 1940s as I am sure that she appeared in the first Oor Wullie book. She was definitely in from the late 1970s / early 1980s but I can't say for certain if she was in any earlier. Hopefully Ray will be along soon and be able to answer.

I think she was there in the early days as well Col.

Thanks, all. I have seen appearances of a character that has Primrose's design, but is often given other names. I think this is what is fuelling my confusion on the topic.
