The Rover was published by D.C. Thomson based in Dundee, Scotland.
The Rover was the second of the 'Big Five' it was first published on 4th March 1922. It ran to a total of 1855 issues with 'Rover' in the title.
After nearly a forty year run as 'The Rover' it was merged with 'Adventure' on 21st January 1961. This title ran to 142 issues before dropping 'Adventure' from the title and reverting to 'The Rover' on 12th October 1963. It then was merged with 'The Wizard' with issue #148 on 16th November 1963.
'Rover and Wizard' was published from 23rd November 1963 when it again reverted back to 'The Rover' with issue #448 on 16th August 1969. It finally ceased publication on 13th January 1973 with issue #626.
One of the Big Five boys' story papers from D.C. Thomson (others being, Adventure, The Hotspur, The Skipper and The Wizard). Featuring illustrated stories of adventure, sports, schooldays, crime, s.f. plus jokes.
They bear no relation to the American pulps or, in fact, the British pocket libraries. They are in a class of their own being anthology story papers which appeared, for the most part, weekly and were aimed at kids and teenagers but were consumed also by many adults.
The mix of illustrated serials of many genres, a few pages every week, ensured there was something for every reader in every issue and they sold shedloads.
