More Eagle/Dan Dare themed vintage transfers for us all to look out for. I had some of these in an annual once but I've never seen them in their original condition.

'AAARGH!!!' was a 1970/1 exhibition held at the ICA in London - it was subtitled 'A celebration of comics' - images are scare (so far!) but I have found a lovely poster used to advertise the exhibition.
