Title: Captain Flame
Post by: crashryan on November 22, 2016, 07:17:00 PM
Over the years I've seen tantalizing excerpts of Septimus Scott's Captain Flame. Does anyone have scans of his stories?

Really difficult, crash. The problem with all the AP/Fleetway Pocket Libraries is with rusty staples. The poorish paper round the staples not only discolours because of the rust, it also deteriorates badly.  The only way to satisfactorily scan one of these books is by dismantling it and you can't put it back together. Spreading the comic out makes it fall to bits.  As they are quite expensive to buy, and rare, I can't see many folk scanning them.  There are facsimiles being offered right now but no Captain Flame stories. 
I don't know if you've seen this Book Palace page, if not, it might interest you:-
