*Boys’ Adventure & War Picture Libraries: A highly sought-after – and highly confusing – Picture Library series, TV Picture Stories started by running several different ‘stars’ concurrently, each in their own numbered series. Around the fourth or fifth issues, publisher Pearsons, for unknown reasons, relaunched again from #1, merging all the established series and adding new ones. Therefore you have some apparently-duplicated numbers on some series, and have to rely on the story titles to differentiate. (And you know the place to look for Pearsons’ issue numbers is the wee text block on the inside back cover, right? This Week’s Top Tip!) We have around thirty new TV Picture Libraries to our name, both from the individual series and the ‘merged’ ongoing. Pictured are Charlie Chan #3 FN £15, OSS #5 VG £12.50, and the #1 of the ongoing series, starring William Tell, VG £12.50. Details on the others, as always, in our online catalogue.
