BEANO COMIC (THE)

Issue: 197-220 (1943)
From: 1943 To: 1943

#197 Big Eggo captures Nazi parachutist. #198 Big Eggo captures a V-Boat. #200 1st Shipwrecked Circus by Dudley Watkins. #202 is Grand April Fool Number pictured. A #201 in Fine Minus sold for £56.65 Sep 2008.

#204 Easter issue with Heil Hitler cover. Great cover! Such a war prpaganda issue with such a famous (or infamous) cover star would probably fetch twice the values listed below. In Sep 2019 a FN/FN+ copy fetched £111.96 on eBay UK.

These 'special' issues do tend to fetch twice the value (and sometimes more) than 'regular' issues.

#200 dated Feb 27th 1943 is clearly a landmark issue. Collectors do target issue #100, #200, #300 etc. A Very Good/Fine copy of #200 showed up on eBay UK in Apr 2014. fetching £104.01. It looked clean and fresh and only suffered from a 2cm tear on the Shipwrecked Circus double page spread.
