Lion Weekly was a weekly newspaper for boys, with stories, comic strips, and useful facts. Some of the best of each year were collected in annuals. I look for these annuals because although the majority of material is fictional they often had non-fiction articles and illustrations about the future of space flight.
"When We Reach the Moon" is one of those fantastic treasures hidden away.
I used to love this comic as a child. It often came with free gadgets, such as plastic aeroplanes you could fire with an elastic band. Full of post war optimism. Cricket and play the game.
ReplyDeleteI remember these annuals very fondly. A pity that you can't download them.
