British Update: Judy #2 — with Free Gift!
*Girls’ Comics: From 1960, the second-ever issue of one of the Grand Old Ladies of British Girls’ Comics: Judy! DC Thomson’s companion paper to Bunty, this issue brught us early adventures of “Sandra of the Secret Ballet”, “Janie B. Quick”, “Nanette of the North”, “Runaway Princess”, and, for a bit of literary gloss, “David Copperfield”. This copy is an attractive VG- at £90, with minimal corner and edge wear at the front, slightly more wear at the back, but still sound, clean and unmarred, with flexible off-white pages. Most importantly, it comes with its original free gift – 3 glossy photo-cards of “Lovely Young Dancers” of 1960, plus a ‘dainty plastic wallet’ to keep them in! Judy ran until the 1990’s, and early issues in this decent a grade are vanishingly rare, let alone with the free gift.
