I rarely visit eBay these days anymore
because my collection of UK comics is as complete as I will ever want it to be,
but I am still after a few elusive issues of BUSTER, GIGGLE and SPARKY.
A few days ago I crossed one more issue of GIGGLE off my wants list, and although it is not special in any way, I thought I might show its cover and a few inside pages here.

The comic offered a combination of humour and adventure, and had a large share of reprints of strips by UK and European artists, but I believe the pages below were all new (Helpful Hettie was later reprinted in COR!!, but I am unsure if this particular episode was).
At this point I only need GIGGLE issues cover-dated 2 Sept., 11 Nov. and 25 Nov., 1967. I would also buy the issue of 1 July, 1967 because my copy is missing its centre pages.
My wants list of BUSTER consists of the issues cover-dated 31 Dec., 1960, 4 Feb., 1961 and 4 July, 1964.
I am also after SPARKY issue No. 620 (4 Dec., 1976), and would buy a complete copy of No. 110 (25 Feb., 1967).
Please, let me know if you have copies of the above and wish to sell :)

Didn't know it had new content... some nice Reg Parlett gems there and interesting to see Captain Swoop has a two pager...
ReplyDeleteI think Captain Swoop was a two-pager throughout its run in Giggle, and on centre pages too! I believe it only became a one-pager when it was transfered to Buster.
