I was wondering if anyone had caught the auction on Ebay for a late 70's early 80's signed letter congratulating the recipient on winning a postal order? It sold for just over £50! Not bad...
I have a letter from Big E from circa 1979. I wrote to him complaining I had not been able to obtain issue number 3 of Tornado and asked if I could have a copy please I also included the money for it. A lot latter when I had by then given up on Tornado somewhere around issue 6 I received a very kind letter, typed, in the post with issue number 3 and the free gift! It was signed Big E but I suspect it was probably one of the typist or whoever else managed the post/subscriptions. I still have the letter and the comic but not the free gift....

I'm sure if somebody has an autograph of Big E's human alter-ego we'd be able to compare, er, 'i's (both names have 'B', 'G', and 'E', but not in the same case!)
Guy at work told me about this, butt I won't part with my letters from TMO...
I will scan it and put it on the site next week if anyone is interested, bored or even old enough to remember?
When did I become such a nerdy old fart? :)
Do it! That's the kind of stuff we thrive on🤓

Trying to push up demand by making us wait, eh? Sneaky!
Ta da!!! Im such a tease. Thank you ladies and gentlemen!
Not as exciting as the 2000ad letterhead but then again it had a short life so maybe the stationary never got sorted?
Why can you view the letter when only signed in? Sorry
