Can you help me find this Beano from the 1960s?

Hi everyone, I need help from an expert Beanologist…I’m trying to identify (and then perhaps buy) a Beano issue with a particular “Three Bears” story from the 1960s which has a key place in our family mythology. This is what I'm looking for:

- from 1964/65/66 or perhaps 67
- it was published in the school holidays (July/August)
- so could be a summer holiday special
- it featured a “Three Bears” story including the line “Mug? Pa Bear’s a mug!”

I would be so grateful if anyone can help track down where this appeared - it should only need a quick visit to your Beanorium! Thanks all.
