British Update: Long Hot Summer: Tiger Olympic, Valiant Space and 1st Valiant Summer Specials
*Boys’ Adventure & War Comics: A trio of unusual items this update: from 1976, the Tiger Olympic Special, curiously devoid of any comics content – no, not even Roy of the Rovers – but replete with features, photos and articles on the Winter and Summer Olympics in Montreal that year; FN at £15. Then we have the 1967 Valiant Space Special, in format more reminiscent of a softcover annual, but featuring original, non-reprint adventures of Valiant favourites with a space theme – Captain Hurricane, Kelly’s Eye, the Steel Claw, and yes, even Billy Bunter and the Nutts get into the act! This rarity is VG/FN at £45. Finally, from 1966, the first-ever Valiant Summer Special, again in an unusual squarebound album format, with new adventures of all the weekly favourites; GD/VG £30. SORRY, THESE HAVE NOW SOLD
