*Humour Comics: We’re delighted to add to our catalogue more than 25 issues of the tabloid-sized Topper from its early years 1956-1958. Included are Fireworks and Easter issues. Similar in content to its companion title Beezer, which followed it, Topper cover featured Mickey the Monkey, but famously included Beryl the Peril amongst its many humour strips, along with adventure strips (particularly on the rear page e.g. Captain Blood) and illustrated facts pages. Topper’s huge size, whilst giving it no doubt much impact in the newsagents, led to more fragility and must have meant that not as many copies survived as the more standard sized comics, so it’s always a treat when some in decent shape turn up.
