Ho ho hum! Here is the first of the Christmasy (!?) covers/pictures for this season. I know that this Raymond Briggs cover is one of the big favorites. Many puffineers remember this as having a wrap-around cover - but I'm afraid it didn't! The perspective just doesn't line up - It's still very nice though!! I will post the back cover and a mini spread to prove the point.
I hope to post a regular selection over the twelve days of christmas (Children allowing!).
This site is dedicated to the original Puffin Club founded in 1967 and it's creators. What I post is a mixture of reminiscences and restored artwork.
Almost all of the old copies of Puffin Post were owned and loved by children - and the ravages of time weigh heavy on their paper covers. Some of the postings are works in progress, or may be updated when better quality images/news come to light.
Please contact me to share your images and memories - I will be happy to breathe new life into treasured memorabilia.
