Thank you for the info about the artist.
Here is the information that you requested, Goof. ‘The Secret Of The Red Balloons’ ran in BUNTY 615 (October 25 1969) – 629 (January 31 1970).
Thanks very much, Derek.
Is there a collection anywhere where they can be re-read ? My brother threw all my Bunty magazines away from 1968-1971. I remember one story about young children with broken bone who could be whisked away and someone gave them glue to repair them ?
Unfortunately, D.C Thomson has not reprinted many collections, so the only way is to find the original issues, through ebay, or sometime special groups or shops have them.
IPComics have reprinted some Misty, Jinty and Tammy stories, if you are interested in those: https://shop.treasuryofbritishcomics.com/
Thanks Goof and Derek
