A recent sale by ebay seller 'the-Lewes-Bookshelf' (here) - who seems to be turning up a lot of interesting comic stuff lately - featured not only issue #1 of School Friend but also an A5 sized single sheet promotional flyer for the 1st issue. Rare! The winning bid was just over £50

Girls at the Cartoon Museum
Anyone who pops into the Cartoon Museum in London this Summer will still be able to see the current display looking at art in girls comics. As you'll see from the images below there are pages from (Princess) Tina, Girl and School Friend. Do check it out if you get the chance.
Higher page of art is... by Jack Hardee (from School Friend, 1962) and the story My school friend Sara
Lower page of art is...by Clive Upton (from Princess, 1965) and the story Amber Ridd - daughter of Lora Doone
