| when we were in our sixties all pocket money we got were spent on spls, jsf and princess library comics. There was no life than this. tks |
|
| A very BIG thank you to the people who have uploaded the Schoolfriend comic books. They were a significant part of my childhood and teenage years though I began reading them decades after they were first published. Thanks for bringing back the old world charm.As I read these 'new' titles, I am reliving the wonder years. I am a teacher and would recommend them to my twentieth century students!!! |

| Can't quite make out the title of the magazine in the woman's hand. Anybody? |
|
| I'm pretty sure it is Jack and Jill, a children's comic. |
|
| Paw, going by the Yellow Border and the Red on the cover I would have thought 'Jack and Jill' also, but that lettering order doesn't seem right for that. Unless it is the back cover, which often had strips on it. A thought, Was 'Jack and Jill' a sister magazine to 'Schoolgirl's picture library'? It would make sense to sneakily advertise a sister magazine on the cover.
Cheers. |

| I've now read all twenty of the ones posted in SPL. All magnificent - and thanks to those caring, sharing people who uploaded them. I can't believe this is the end - I think I read in an earlier comment of an Indian member who had all but two of the SPLs - I wonder if she would mind uploading? These are a cultural treasure that should be shared by all. |
