Just noticed you have another section on TV Express – which is the same comic as this one – so a couple you already have – suggest merging the two sections together.

any idea where I can locate a copy of the Junior Express Weekly from July 12, 1956? I’m seeking an article titled “The Gestapo Pounce,” about Noor Inayat Khan. Thanks

that would be great. thanks. for the American publisher, W.W. Norton, I’m writing a biography of Noor Inayat Khan. She was in the SOE in France in 1943. Killed at Dachau in September 1944. that Junior Express Weekly story about her in 1956 would be, as far as I can determine, the 1st effort to tell her story to children. Maybe you know of any archives in England that have 1956 issues of the Junior Express?

I’d love to read it, too. Was the Junior Express Weekly published by a newspaper? Which one? They may have back issues in their archives or on microfilm. Also, since I’m writing from the U.S., I’m not familiar with how England treats its past. In this country, the Library of Congress in Washington has back issues of virtually every publication ever printed in the US. Is there a comparable institution in the UK? Maybe it has Junior Express Weekly’s from 1956? Thanks again for your help

You better ask this question on the frontpage of the blog because that is where most visitors read comments, i am not British myself, i just love the comics.
This is what i found out.
Junior Express was first published by Beaverbrook Newspapers on 4 September 1954, later by City Magazines. It was renamed Junior Express Weekly with issue 39, then Express Weekly with issue 74.

Your idea about posting my quandary on the front page of the blog is a good one. I just asked a fella in England who’s helping with research if he’ll track down the issue of the Junior Express I’m seeking. If he can’t, I’ll do as you suggest

The Daily Express (newspaper) seems like the obvious source of the comic book ‘Express Weekly’ and subsequent titles.
The newspaper is still functioning today at least as a digital edition:
