Disclose Notes: An ad in Lion (1960 series) (IPC) #4 September 1965 states this Annual "comes on sale this week." That issue of Lion was released 28 August 1965 according to an ad in Lion (1960 series) (IPC) #28 August 1965. However, that issue was published early, likely due to Summer Bank Holiday, which was observed on the books normal release date of 30 August 1965. So it is unclear if this Annual was on sale the week of 23 August or the week of 30 August.
