Evidently, BAYKO was advertised widely in various parts of the UK press in the 1950s and early 1960s. Some, like those in the 'HOTSPUR', generated what we now call 'pester power', others were aimed head on at parents. |
'HOTSPUR' was produced by D.C. Thompson Ltd. on 1933 and survived until 1959, as a a boy's story paper, though wartime paper shortages forced it to alternate with the 'WIZARD' for the duration.
