British Update: CSD Putney – Girls’ Diary, School Friend, and Schoolgirl’s Story Library
*Girls’ Picture Libraries: With this week’s CSD spotlight, we turn our attention once again to the fairer sex, with updates to three series: the obscure Girls’ Diary from 1964, a short-lived entry in the genre, the first three issues new in plus #8 (#1 pictured); School Friend, a more famous name, from its 1962 premiere issue (pictured), featuring the adventures of WWII resistance girl Linette, My Friend Sara, fashion model Tracy, and others; and Micron’s Schoolgirl’s Story Library, a text companion to their Adventure Library series, with a handful of early issues – we would tell you the year of publication, but apparently Micron though copyright dates were for sissies! With titles like “The Blue Lagoon”, “Typhoon!”, “Thunder Island”, and “Mystery Girl at Fairburn”, you’re guaranteed the usual heady mix of exotic foreign travel and boarding-school intrigue.
