Over here on the Down the Tubes website is an article looking at the campaign against the horror comics of the 1950s. One of the pamphlets produced at the time was recently up for sale on ebay.
The closing price was too rich for me (£192.77) but luckily the seller scanned all the pages. For posterity I've therefore taken those scans and include them below so that you don't need to hunt down this rare pamphlet.
So, here you go, a glimpse of the moral panic of the 1950s c/o the International Women's Day committee. I'm guessing that the exhibition they refer to (page 12) is the exhibition may be the ones that eventually makes is similar to the one organised by the NUT that the memo referred to here
