Sea Jewels & Comics
Introduction
Part 2/3 of “A Day at the Seaside” based on Hazle’s memories of the 1960s. Comics were ideal for trains. Sea jewels made good gifts or keepsakes. In the late 1800s Goss China created souvenir ware with seaside town names and crests, still bought today.
1963 combi. Desperate Dan, Dennis the Menace and his dog Gnasher appear on the ceramic.

Children’s Comics
Mass-produced cartoon strips first began in US newspapers in the early 1900s. The first UK comic was The Dandy in 1937. Comic sales are now surging with web and TV linked revamps. But today’s children also enjoy the old characters. Parents know comics are a way of getting younger children to read so are happy to buy them!
