*Girls’ Comics: Huge top-up to Tammy from the years 1974 to 1975. This influx of approximately 75 issues commences with the 1974 merger issue (22nd June 1974), in which Tammy not only gobbled up her former stablemate June, but also presented the first appearance of ‘Bella at the Bar’ – later simply ‘Bella’. ‘Bella’ ran, with breaks, for almost exactly a decade until Tammy’s final issue; created by Jenny McDade and artist John Armstrong, the story of a plucky young gymnast, who used her talents to try to escape her life of grinding poverty with grasping relatives, struck a chord with the readership, who demanded more and more of her rags-to-riches – and back to rags – progress. This update includes Halloween, Fireworks, Christmas and April Fool issues, and recharges our previously-depleted stock from this period with an almost unbroken run from June 1974 to October 1975, missing only two editions.
