British Update: Free Gift Farrago: Bunty #300 (1963) with Pretty Party Bracelet
*Girls’ Comics: Bunty #300, October 12 1963, celebrated the comic’s milestone with a Free Gift on the cover: the ‘Pretty Party Bracelet’ is a cute plastic trinket of white beads interspersed with gold coloured ones, all linked by an elastic band. The comic itself is GD, presentable but with a crescent-shaped tear on the cover (mostly in Bunty’s first speech balloon) that does not break the cover image. However, the gift is still in its original packaging, never opened, and is a shiny NM. Free gifts are uncommon from this period, and girls’ ones doubly so, so this is an affordable opportunity for a collectable rarity, on sale at £40 for the comic and gift combo.
