David Wright's Carol Day: Last of the Line (Limited Edition)
LAST FEW COPIES NOW AVAILABLE
Carol Day is a fashion model, elegant and assured in a world of intrigue, vividly brought to life in this much-acclaimed newspaper strip with multi-layered adult storylines and superbly detailed and atmospheric artwork.
A wonderful newspaper strip, with its combination of sophisticated stories, rounded characters and always magnificent art, Carol Day transcends even the best American strips of the time, and yet, despite being sold internationally, it was never syndicated in the United States.
Created by artist David Wright, she was published in the Daily Mail between 10th September 1956 and 25th May 1967.
Message from the Publisher
Following Riverside Racket, our second Carol Day Story Book is Last of the Line, the 13th story, which ran in 1960.
We originally planned to publish Money Matters as the second volume, but Roger lost track of several of the scans, so whilst we hunt those down we are going forward with Last of the Line, an excellent story from the same period as Money Matters.
Last of the Line is the same format as Riverside Racket and Cousin Hugo, our other story books, with the art pages just like Lance Hallam and Jack Slingsby. It contains the complete story reproduced from the original art in the original size, continuing our founding principle. In addition, we have provided a brief introduction.
To store and display the story books, we've designed a SLIPCASE that will fit all three story books. The slipcase matches the Lance Hallam and Jack Slingsby books on your shelf. Brian Bolland has designed another wonderful Carol Day cover for the front of the slipcase. The limited edition slipcase is now available.
