Catalogue information
Very first issue of Tops and Tim, and probably the (free) trial issue. Presented as "Protestant Christian Youth Magazine. Price 25 cents." No date stated, but estimate based on text: 'The next issue will be published on June 5, and then regularly every fortnight. The intention was therefore every two weeks, but no other numbers / releases are known (to me). Most likely it stayed with this first (test) issue and the magazine died a sudden death. Illustrations by Reini Venema, among others. Contains (sequel) story by Jules Verne, comic about Tops and Tim 'Avontuur in Amerika', two reli-pieces by Nel den Hollander (including 'Water in wine' and on the back strip 'De leeuw van Modderspruit', which is located in South Africa plays (with farmers and zoelus). Furthermore, many sections, such as Poppenhoekje, Boeken and the Newspaper. "Reads Tops and Tim, the best and most beautiful Christian Youth Magazine." Only one mention on the internet, namely an advertisement for the magazine in the Nieuwe Leidsche Courant of 24 June 1948.
