Following on from a previous post (here) about Oor Wullie calendars I realised that there must be other DC Thomson calendars out there so I set off to google Beano calendars - so here's my guide to collecting them...
New material is highlighted in red
Interestingly the 1992 edition has a reference that says "Number 7" in the top right cover - indicating that this is the 7th edition of the calendar...
...hmmm, and the 1993 calendar says "Number 8"...
...hmmm, and the 1994 calendar says "Number 9"...
...thingk the 1995 one says 'number 10' in the top right corner
no sign of 1996
Here's the 1997 calendar - you'll see from the back cover picture that this is (helpfully) number as number 12 so there must have been a calendar for 1996 (to be number 11)
The 1998 calendar
The 1999 calendar (left) and the envelope it came in (right)
The 2000 calendar (right) and the envelope it came in (left)
Here's the 2002 calendar
2003 calendar
Then a gap again to 2004...
No 2005 calendar (I think!) so here's the 2006 edition...
From ebay - but here's evidence of the 2008 calendar
...And then a long gap until 2018
I never knew they did calendars.
ReplyDeleteThere were of course, calendars for the years you are missing. There were also personalised calendars available. The 'long' calendars you show were not the 'official' version, suggesting that there must have been calendars by other publisshers in some years.
