Item description from seller

A fine copy, in a near fine dust jacket. The green cloth binding with gilt spine lettering is bright and clean. The contents are bright and tight. The pictorial dust jacket is neatly clipped, and has only very light overall wear. The jacket is now protected in a removable mylar cover. This volume contains facsimiles of The Magnet numbers 1247 to 1254. Billy Bunter appeared in 1,670 of the 1,683 issues of The Magnet published during the 32-year period from 1908 to 1940. He was introduced in Magnet No. 1 The Making of Harry Wharton (1908) as a minor character, but developed into one of the principal characters of the stories as author Charles Hamilton realised his comic potential. George Orwell described him as ".a real creation. His tight trousers against which boots and canes are constantly thudding, his astuteness in search of food, his postal order which never turns up, have made him famous wherever the Union Jack waves." (Orwell 1940). Most of the 1,683 issues of The Magnet were reprinted in hardback form by publisher W. Howard Baker, under his Howard Baker and Greyfriars Book Club imprints, between 1969 and 1990.
