British Update: Long Hot Summer – June & School Friend Summer Special 1980
*Girls’ Comics: June, the grand old dame of Fleetway/IPC’s girls’ line, hung up her hockey sticks in 1974, but in the British Tradition, both Annuals and Summer Specials continued to be issued for years after the weekly’s demise. 1980, however, saw the very last June and School Friend Summer Special, and that issue is newly arrived in our inventory. Oddly, it’s got few of the series associated with June weekly – Bessie Bunter and Lucky’s Living Doll show their faces, but the rest of the comics content is stand-alone mystery and adventure stories. Nevertheless, this last J & SF Special is also the rarest, so this attractive VG copy, with moderate spine wear, is on sale at £40. SORRY, THIS HAS NOW SOLD
