*Girls’ Picture Libraries: In the final distaff episode of our CSD: Putney (Cowboys, Schoolgirls and Detectives) event, we turn our attention to Princess Picture Library. This digest-sized spin-off from Princess Magazine (as the weekly comic liked to style itself) featured the two most popular comic-strip stars from that title in alternating adventures. For the first 50-something issues, the spotlight was held by either Sue Day, of the ‘Happy Days’ family, or Sally of the Ballet, but eventually, other features appeared, as Alona, Tilly Tuffin, and Julie’s eccentric inventor Uncle Lionel jumped in to the mix. We have around 60 issues new in, mostly in attractive high grades (as is characteristic of the CSD collection), ranging from #2 through to the final issue, #120, after which the series merged with June & School Friend PL from 366. Enthusiasts should note that the copies graded at VF are among the nicest we’ve ever seen of any picture libraries, and certainly as nice as anyone could want for a prestigious high-grade collection. Illustrated are #2 VF £30, #5 VF £30, #100 VF £20, and #120 VF £30; for details of other issue grades and prices, check our online catalogue.
