*Humour Comics: Gerald G Swan was a very prolific British publisher active between the late 1930s and the early 1960s. He produced works in virtually every fiction genre and in every format – comics and story papers, annuals, pulps, magazines, books etc. He started out just before WWII, and because he had bought up significant paper stocks before the war, was able to produce a good quantity throughout the conflict and beyond. This update, we have four issues of Swan’s Cute Fun, a series published from 1946-1953. Part humorous picture strips and part illustrated text stories, Cute Fun was described by Swan as “Eight pages of laughter-producing comic strips and 5,000 words of short, complete, illustrated stories of College life as well as adventure”. We have four issues, all in nice shape. Special thanks to friend of 30th Century Nigel Fletcher, whose wonderful website Publications of Gerald G. Swan provides a wealth of information on this publisher.
