British Update: Wherefore art thou, Romeo? – Right here!
*Girls’ Comics: Wherefore art thou, Romeo? Well, for a short time, the answer to that question’s going to be: Putney! Romeo, the D.C. Thomson weekly picture-story paper for women, is insanely hard to find in any condition, (presumably grown-up ladies were in the habit of throwing out that week’s issue as part of their housewifely duties!) and the most we at 30th C. have ever had at once have been a dozen or so, in our 20+ years. But no longer! We’ve been phenomenally lucky in acquiring more than 120 issues of this often beautifully-illustrated romance comic, from 1957’s issue #8 through to the early part of 1972, in a wide variety of grades from Poor to Fine, and even with a handful of duplicated copies, so that more than one lucky punter can have a crack at ’em! We don’t expect to get this lucky twice, and any Romeos we’ve previously listed have tended to sell out within the day, so move swiftly if you want to secure your share of the teardrops n’ moonlight melodrama!
