*Annuals: Doctor Who, of course, has been a fixture in the zeitgeist almost since the TV series debuted in 1963, and it wasn’t long before a world of merchandise emerged themed around Gallifrey’s favourite son and his time-traversing adventures. The BBC released Annuals of original material for the lucrative Christmas gift market commencing in 1965, (for 1966). We have two copies of the first Annual, from the same pedigree source as our previous ‘Immaculate’ selections; these are from a newsagent’s inventory, never circulated or read, no prices clipped, no gift dedications, ‘This Book Belongs To’ inscriptions or other interior markings, solid spines, tight corners and bright, vibrant colours. Also from the ‘Immaculate’ provenance, the scarce 1968 Annual, the first featuring Patrick Troughton’s iteration of the Doctor. From an alternate source – hence the ‘Special Guest’ tag in our heading – we have also obtained a copy of the single rarest Dr. Who Annual, from 1969. Our 1966 Annuals are VF £35 (pictured) and FN/VF £30, respectively. The scarce 1968 is a virtually flawless VF/NM at £100, tight pages, bright pristine interiors. The 1969, rarest Dr. Who Annual, is a lower grade of GD/VG. Sound and complete, with no price clipped or gift dedication, but it does have moderate wear to top and bottom of spine (though spine is complete) and light label residue in upper right front cover, plus a previous owner’s name written neatly in the lower margin of Page 25. The 1969 Annual, GD/VG, is on sale at £75. SORRY, FIRST TWO PICTURED HAVE NOW SOLD
