Before Archie

Posted by noelbynature

You’ll still find copies of Beano and Dandy on sale at your news stands, if you’re lucky. These two comic magazines, printed weekly on newsprint, were the reading staple of children and young-at-heart.


during those colonial days and up to the 70s, for amusement and light reading, most of us were sustained on a diet of beano and dandy, two british publications. i think, we in singapore, received the back copies but nobody complained at all. they were published either weekly or fortnightly and you could get them from the newstands as well as the mamak stalls.

Read about them on ygblog.
