It's not often you get a Christmas card from the 1950s dropping through the letter box.
But that is what l got today and anyone who regularly read the Eagle comic will recognise the rocket ship and the names Digby and the Meakon.
At which point l shall not say any more about the two or the Christmas decorated ship hurtling through space.
Instead l will just confess that the card was no time travelling bit of Christmas cheer, instead it came from The Eagle Society that society of like minded happy bunch dedicated to keeping the memory of the Eagle alive.*
And ofcourse l have been one of those happy members for four decades and an "Eagler" since 1957.
Pictures; Christmas Card from the Eagle Society, 2024, and Operation Silence from the Eagle Annual, 1956.
