British Update: Combat Library & Combat Picture Library
*Boys’ Adventure & War Picture Libraries: It’s perhaps not well known that Micron published two separate series with the word ‘Combat’ in the title. Both commenced in 1959. The more familiar Combat Picture Library lasted until 1985 (1212 issues); the sister title Combat Library lasted at least 80+ issues (as far as anyone seems to know) and featured illustrated text stories with the occasional picture strip. The series are easily confused. We have examples of both in this update: 3 issues of Combat Library including some of the final issues) and several dozen Combat Picture Library, all pre-decimal in the series’ original livery. Full details as always in our catalogue.
