Another Great Auction from Doncaster Auction Centre, including Jewellery, Collectibles, Vintage, Retro, A Real Eclectic Mix
A substantial collection estimated to be 50-70 individual British digest-sized comic books or “picture libraries,” primarily from the “Commando War Stories in Pictures” series, alongside titles such as “Air Ace Picture Library,” “Starblazer Space Fiction Adventure,” and “Top Secret Picture Library.” These publications feature illustrative, action-oriented cover art, largely depicting military and science fiction themes. Specific visible titles include “Cards of Fate,” “Private Schultz’s War,” “Dead-Eye Donovan,” “Bowler’s Bofors,” “Terror Tomb,” and “The Reluctant Enemy.” The collection appears to span from the 1970s into the 1990s, indicated by issue numbers ranging from the 1000s to over 7000, varied pricing in pence (e.g., 10p, 30p, 55p, 65p), visible international pricing (e.g., Aus 65c, NZ $1.50, Can $1.00, USA $1.50), and the presence of barcodes on later issues. Constructed from paper and ink, all visible text is in English.
