British Update: The British Are Coming! The Wonderful Thing About Tigers is…We’ve Got ‘Em!
*Boys’ Adventure & War Comics: As promised, this is the first in a series of very special British updates coming up over the next few weeks. The larger format Tigers, as it was in its early years, are not common at all, as we’ve found in our near 25 years of trading, and so we’re particularly delighted to have acquired a complete run of them from 24th October 1959 (1st issue combined with Comet) right up to and including 22nd August 1964. Famous strips include Roy Of The Rovers (of course!), Olac The Gladiator, Jet Ace Logan and Johnny Cougar (in fact we have the first Johnny Cougar story in 31/3/62), as well as very many others. There are also in this selection a couple of the highly-prized issues complete with promotional flyers: 8/7/61 and 22/2/64. Unusually for comics of this large size, this batch is remarkably well-preserved, with the vast majority being nice VG copies; there are many FN, a handful of GD and just one FA. Photos of the copies referenced above are shown below; we’ve never had this many Tigers from this period in all at once before, so this represents a great opportunity to collect them while they’re here — we suspect many of them won’t be for long, judging from past performance! Another star British update coming soon — watch out for it! SORRY, ALL ISSUES FROM 1964 HAVE NOW SOLD
