Denis Gifford | The best of "Eagle" annual 1951-1959
If you were a young lad in 1950s Britain, you’d most likely have been an avid reader of Eagle magazine. Featuring iconic comics such as Dan Dare, Pilot of the Future, and Harris Tweed, Extra Special Agent, along with all the things boys love—nature, military history, magic tricks, cowboys, and childhood hobbies of all stripes—it sold more than one million copies each week.
Now it’s back, with this special annual edition that commemorates the Eagle’s heyday. Designed for anyone who loves retro culture, it offers actual features that are reprinted as they first appeared, including the comics, articles, readers’ letters and even advertisements that were an integral part of growing up.
