Hi everyone,
I've got my hands on two Beezer comic free gifts.
one is the BEEZER BOOMERBANG and the other is the BEEZER BINGO BANGER.
I've tried searching online to confirm which Beezer issues these came with but nothing is coming up.
can anyone confirm which issues these came from?
any help would be great.
thanks Johnp

The Topper
No1 (7/2/53) The Big Crack Bang
No2 (14/2/53) The Swanee Hummer
No3 (21/2/53) The Thunderclap
Interestingly Topper gave away no more free gifts until 1961 allowing its tabloid sister paper the Beezer, although not first published until three years later, to easily outstrip it in the gift giving department during the decade.

Just to add to Digi's post, and also courtesy of Ray Moore (Kashgar), in this case his The Book Of The Beezer, the Beezer Boomerbang was included with issue 323 (24 March 1962).

Never say never John as you never know what you are going to find next.

That sentence is a perfect example of an oxymoron.

Hi there.
I don't suppose your Beezer Bingo Banger might be for sale? I am trying to collect all the DCT bangers and this one eludes me!
thanks!
