British Update: Long Hot Summer – Scorcher Summer/Holiday Specials 1970-1979
*Boys’ Adventure & War Comics: Scorcher, the soccer-themed weekly, proved so popular with the readers that it launched its first Summer Special in the same year as its debut. We have that first Scorcher Summer Special, and all the others (save for 1973) up to 1979, which present information leads us to believe might be the final Special – though, as with so many matters related to British comics, a final verdict has yet to be reached! ‘Billy’s Boots’, ‘Nipper’, ‘Lags Eleven’, ‘Bobby of the Blues’, ‘Hot-Shot Hamish’ and more await you! The 1970 Special is VG £20, and 1971 VG £15, both illustrated. For details of the rest, see our online catalogue. SORRY, THESE HAVE NOW SOLD
