Customer Reviews

A real gem
I bought this along with the facsimile Broons book and have enjoyed both. They are a faithful reproduction with no editing (although there must have been pressure from the PC brigade). I was brought up on the Dandy (and Beeno) and whilst I am too young to remember the first edition most of the characters had survived into the sixties and it was fun to see them again.

Dandy Monster Comic Annual 1939
When doing a search for "Dandy Monster Comic Annual 1941" you show a photo of the 1939 edition this is very misleading as you are giving the impression that it is a 1941 Facsimile edition.
