1952; Part 1 pgs 1-32 + covers (original material). The Annual #1 contains 1 comic worth of new material. It then reprints issue #2 in its entirety, followed by a reprinting of issue #1 in its entirety. Even the ads are exactly the same. Rather than rescan those issues, I just copied and pasted my scan of #2, and then Tigger’s scan of #1 and renumbered them. I put those files in a separate download. If you want them, simply cut and paste from one folder into the other and they’ll all be there in proper sequence.
