Re: T.V annuals
love it. used to like watching bananaman. i must apologize for not answering you sooner about the pics of my book a bit further up. yes, they are mine darren.
I very nerly picked up some Space 1999 ones from a Charity Shop when back in the UK, they had heaps of old annuals, including Beano etc.
If anyone is interested, they were in the Charity shop nearest (on the same side) to Poppins Cafe near the Mall entrance at the Toys R Us end in Basildon.
There were Star Trek annuals published for a time. I think I had ones from 1972 to 1976 plus an undated one which I think was from 1971. Also had The Wombles annual for 1973. I had at least 2 Man from UNClE annuals, but not sure of years. Again, 2 Thunderbirds, 1 Captain Scarlet and 1 Joe 90, all possibly undated.
As well as annuals I also had several 'Television Story Books' which were annual-sized tie-ins to current TV shows. I had Custer and Garrison's Gorillas, both from about 1967, plus there was an Avengers one (Steed and Emma Peel) from the same time, which I didn't have.
I had annuals from Doctor Who, Pinky & Perky, Tich & Quackers*, TV Comic, Star Trek and Blake's 7.
* anyone remember this? Puppet show about a boy and his pet duck from ventriloquist Ray Allen. It was slightly before my time, I never saw it as far as I can remember, but I had an annual. Most of it no longer exists.
I've onyl heard of Tich & Quackers in books on Children's TV & in One Foot In The Grave where Victor compared some young detectives to Tich & Quackers.
