I did learn some Spanish a long time ago and feel comfortable reading it so enjoyed seeing your blog.

I too loved a lot of books back then like the Deans but was extremely disappointed when they had no illustrations inside and were usually printed on that grotty pulp paper. I definitely judged the book by its cover!

I can't say I'm an expert in Raymond Sheppard's work, but now I wish I'd know more about him. <br /><br />By the way, I'm a big fan of Brian Bolland and I always visit his blog, I noticed you are a fan as well, so I thought it would be a good idea to invite you to my blog. I write about comics and recently I've started reviewing classic Judge Dredd stories:<br /><br />www.artbyarion.blogspot.com<br /><br />I hope you enjoy my review, and please feel free to leave me a comment over there or add yourself as a follower (or both).<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />ArionArionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00794190466838336293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-296430710810823921.post-47144160914830068872015-05-18T11:08:26.670+01:002015-05-18T11:08:26.670+01:00It's a shame that books aren't still done ...It's a shame that books aren't still done in this style today, Norman. I loved the look of the Dean & Son and Collins books that were given out as Sunday school prizes. I'm always keeping an eye out for them in charity shops. Maybe one day, DCT will turn the Black Bob books into a series of novels - I'd certainly read them. (Not much to do with Raymond Sheppard, I know, but wanted to leave a comment so you don't feel ignored.) Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07224781868125924337noreply@blogger.com
