Fun Section facsimile

The 100th anniversary edition of The Sunday Post which I blogged about yesterday is even more attractive to comic collectors than anticipated. The free 96 page souvenir magazine includes 20 pages of full Broons and Oor Wullie reprints from over the years plus a two page article on the life of the strips original artist, the late Dudley Watkins.

Even more enticing for comic fans though, is that the 8 centre pages are a complete reprint of the very first Sunday Post Fun Section from March 8th 1936. Not only does this feature the very first Oor Wullie and The Broons strips, it also includes long-forgotten DC Thomson strips such as Silas Snatcher the Truant Catcher, Wishbone Wuzzy, Peter Pumpkin the Country Bumpkin and Natty Ned. Most, if not all, of these strips seem to be the work of Allan Morely. 

Hurry to your newsagent now to buy a copy of this very collectible edition. The Sunday Post - £1.50.
