Denis Gifford wrote many (large) reference books on the history of British comics, and while more modern day comics were not his forte, our knowledge of the history of British comics would be much poorer without his pioneering efforts. Presented here are the 2 editions of both the (small) books he wrote for Shire Publications. All are still worth searching out...
I still have my copy of his Complete Catalogue of British Comics which I bought way back in 1985.
ReplyDeleteCheers for that Richard. I've just bought Discovering Comics from Abe for £2.80 inc postage after seeing this!
