The short-lived annual run of this short-lived comic. I was amazed looking back at a Dec 1995 catalogue to see a 1939 edition of this rare annual in GD to VG condition sell above estimate for £550. Should have bought it.
A copy with a professionally re-inforced spine was offered at £1,250 and sold as a Best Offer of £926 and looked about a VG over all. Another copy sold on eBay UK back in Dec 2008 for £1,950 in what looked like VG condition, well described by the vendor.
Winter 2018: Comic Book Postal Auction sold a Fine Minus copy of Magic Fun Book 1940 for £766. Small spine piece missing and darker page edges.
