*Girls’ Picture Libraries: In the late 1950s, Scottish publishers D.C. Thomson, who had had a success with their romance weekly Romeo, consolidated it with a series of done-in-one romance comics digests, issued two a month. Golden Heart Love Stories and Silver Moon Romances, to give them their full titles, ran for 97 and 79 issues respectively before Golden Heart was retitled Star Love Stories with #98 in 1965, and Silver Moon merged with Star three issues later. These have striking painted covers, often lovely interior art, and are not commonplace, having been bought mainly by women in their twenties through forties who read and disposed of what were seen as throwaway entertainment, therefore few survive today. We have a selection of Golden Heart from #10 to #71, and Silver Moon from #8 to #81. Pictured are Golden Heart #10 (VG £12) and #21 (VG £9), and Silver Moon #19 (FN £12) and #65 (FN £12). For details on the others, see our online catalogue.
