An incredible and historic hardcover gift-book celebrating 65 years of iconic character, Roy of the Rovers! In 1954, an unassuming young footballer named Roy Race made his debut for Melchester Rovers in the pages of Tiger. Seven decades later, Roy of the Rovers has become a household name and a footballing institution, transcending his humble roots to become a timeless embodiment of sportsmanship and skill across years and years of wild, historic, and breathlessly entertaining comics that are bursting with football and drama. This anniversary special celebrates 65 years of Roy of the Rovers, from the golden age of British comics to modern day, and invites fans to relive the goals, glory, and iconic moments from seven decades of iconic football action!”
Barrie Tomlinson is the author of Real Roy of the Rovers Stuff!
