MiSC: Memory Lane, ‘63 Eagle Annual…

Wowzers! I once had this…

I only ever owned one Eagle publication. The one pictured above. How I came to have it, I forget. I have a vague notion that I bought it at a village fete.

Too steep for me!

I’d prob’ have bought this copy, for nostalgia’s sake. But I felt £7.99 was too much, for me. Esp’ as it’s only one article that I really recall. This one:

Chest-thumping Boys Own stuff.

This story was a catalyst for my burgeoning interest in the Napoleonic era.

Nicely illustrated, Eagle style.
Short, but to the point.

It was a short piece. But packing a hefty punch. At least as far as I was concerned.
