Contributions

Thanks to Edwin M. Schaefer for the use of his collection in reconstructing this data. Most of the information from 1974 thru 1994 was supplied by Michael J. Cross (mike (at) mjckeh.demon.co.uk). Holes in the 1974-1994 era were filled by the Schaefer collection, which was the primary source for 1965-1973 data. The 1949-1951,1953, 1954(Feb-Oct,Dec), 1955(Jan-Mar,May-Jun,Aug-Oct,Dec), 1956(Jan,Mar-Oct,Dec), 1957(Jan-Aug, Oct-Dec), 1958-1959, 1960(Jan,Mar,May-Dec), 1961(Jan-Feb, Apr-May, Jul-Dec), 1962(Jan-Jun,Aug,Nov-Dec), 1963(Jan-Nov) data was supplied by David Stovall (da9ve (at) hotmail.com).

US & UK editions

After the british edition with different contents was stopped (last issue was June 1964), note that there was a slight difference between US and UK diffused issues. It can be seen here that, even if the contents were strictly similar, the covers of the titles for the british market had an UK price instead of the publisher's logo or an UK pice added near the US one. This practice seemed to end in 1969/1970 where both prices were present on all issues.
