Smiths Horror Bags

[Heather74]

Been thinking about it (I need an answer now!) but I can't really remember getting freebies from 2000ad that and the date I started getting it make me doubt this option.

Sixtytens the only one who can answer this one.They are his scans.

I have however gone right back through this thread and all items posted seem to be dated between 1974-1977 (though I personally believe they did live on into the early 80's)

One of Sixtys missing pictures is a Jackpot comic dated 1979

getting closer to the 80's!!!

Re: Smiths Horror Bags

Do we know which comic these came with?
I definitely had a set of these, but I had various comics over the years.
Up to what year were horror bags made?

Just googled IPC and 2000ad came up and as you can see from my signature that looks like a contender.
I started getting 2000ad circa 1982, that to me seems a little late for horror bags?

One other thing is that my parents used to shop at the wholesale cash & carry and once did buy me and my sister a whole box of either bats or bones.
Could it have come from there, within the box?

Thank you so much for the scan, these are brilliant. Would you mind if I added them to my blog?

Re: Smiths Horror Bags

It was from an Ebay auction. The seller only knew they came free with an IPC comic title. Not sure if they were HB related or not, but as you can see, two of them use the HB logos
I'll put a better scan up tomorrow
