In the 1930s It was the "Comic Cuts"
I don't think anyone will remember that one.

Capricorn,
those cut out clothes for the cut out doll were brilliant, until you cut off the bits that folded over the cut out doll! I was always ruining the clothes this way. LOL

Poirot, just a tad before my time. Was Comic cuts short stories ?

My Mum saves me First and Yours.

The NME was always a few pence too much to pay, I couldn't have the sweets if I bought that so never really got into it.
