Happy 74th birthday to Eagle, to celebrate, here's a look at a rare bit of merchandise - the Eagle club notebook

'Escape' magazine, the early A5 sized years! A great comics magazine from Paul Gravett, I've got issues 5-7 and am on the lookout for issues 1-4

Something for the Eagle comic collector who has everything in their life? Yes, it's a Eagle/Girl table tennis medal - these are rare! Quite literally from a different era, not sure I've ever seen 2000AD running table tennis competitions across its titles.

Stephen mentioned having a first edition 'Secret of the unicorn' book to read at his granny's - here's what that book like like.

https://boysadventurecomics.blogspot.com/2023/04/tintin-casterman.html

It is described as the 'medallion' edition. Casterman only reprinted two titles. These are now rare and valuable editions!

More rare photos from the 'Eaglecon 80' convention

An update to my post all about Will Simpson's work on the comic based on the Alton Towers ride, 'Nemesis'

'Ham Dare' is probably my favourite 'Dan Dare' parody strip - this original art by Malcolm Douglas (from a script by Lew Stringer) is stop class. All images from a recent sale by Lew.

Very nice. That episode of Judge Dredd: Oz is burnt into my memory. Skizz I don't remember too well but looks lovely. On the other pieces, it's remarkable to obtain some original art for just £10! Batman and Dredd no less!

that 3rd piece was described as prints but may have been original art - if so, somebody got a bargain!

Some of Jim Baikie's art for 2000AD art got auctioned off yesterday - lovely Skizz & Chopper pages. Congratulations if you were the winning bidder.
