Having recently come into a heap of old 1930's to 1950's annuals of all the story papers, I'm really struggling to find a source which dates them all and lists how many annuals there were in total.
None of the books are dated, which is annoying.
Does anyone have a nice dated gallery of the annuals produced for
Rover, (the old) hotspur, wizard, skipper and adventure (adventure land annual)
Thanks in advance, and apologies as I know these weren't comics in the strictest sense, but I've got to start somewhere!

Have you checked the Annuals section on this very website
https://www.comicsuk.co.uk/annuals.php
It was compiled years ago, but may be of some use to you.

Al ( chap that runs this forum) is completely correct and I should have thought of that first to answer your question !!!Al wrote: 25 Jan 2026, 23:32 Have you checked the Annuals section on this very website![]()

This site does have one of the best annual galleries on the web. Maybe THE best.

Tony's trading is always my first port of call.
Sadly, he doesnt cover the story annuals.
