British Update: Free Gift Farrago – Lindy #1 with Super Bracelet!
*Girls’ Comics: New in, the first issue of this short-lived weekly which got absorbed into Jinty in only a few months. Lindy is one of the less-commonly seen Fleetway girls’ weeklies, with not only a lower print run, but a high incidence of mutilated and incomplete second-hand copies, as it featured a number of pop photos which are frequently clipped or pulled out. Featuring ‘Pavement Patsy’, ‘The House of Fear’, ‘Sophie’s Secret Squeezy’ (our heroine has adventures when she inhales from a washing-up liquid bottle – nowadays, there’s rehab for that…), ‘Hard Days For Hilda’ and more, this debut issue is complete with centrefold of the Bay City Rollers – you have been warned – and has the original free gift, a heart-charm bracelet! In Fine, with a VF Free Gift, at £50.
