1973 No.8 and 1981 No.11 (full issues)...

Here we have No.8 from 1973, (No.7 still pending a fix from Dan).  Also an interesting issue, No.11 from 1981, which contains an ad touting the Metal Mickey strip starting in the next issue.....only it didn't, copyrighting difficulties prevented it happening, either the owners being difficult or wanting too much money, very sad, I loved the series, as corny as it was, and think it would have been a brilliant strip.  A replacement strip wasn't brought in until the new format Look-in, instead in a couple of issues time the Smurfs goes double page...
