List of incomplete/damaged Valiants
===================================
In 2018, Jacko (thanks!) published a list of missing and damaged pages in the Valiant issues. Some of these problems have been solved, some have not. What’s more, on further inspection, I found additional damages or missing pages. So far I have not found another source for these issues.
Hopefully, complete/undamaged scans of the issues below will become available in time, to truly get a complete run of Valiant. If you are able to assist, if only by scanning one or a few pages, thanks in advance for making them available!
Issues with missing pages:
————————————————————–
Valiant #012 (1962-12-22) – 2 missing pages – ‘Jack O’Justice'(page 31) + back page (page 32) are missing. This issue also has some damage on page 13 (‘Steel Claw’) and page 15/16 (‘To Glory We Steer’ picture cut out) and page 20 (‘Hey Presto’ coupon cut out)
Valiant #028 (1963-04-13) – 2 missing pages – page 15 (probably ‘Percy the Problem Child’) and page 18 (probably ‘It’s All Yours’)
Valiant #173 (1966-01-22) – 1 missing page – back page humour strip (‘It’s a Dog’s Life’)
Valiant #189 (1966-05-14) – Missing supplement, 4 pages (‘Supplement No 3 of Your Valiant Big Book of Football’)
Valiant #190 (1966-05-21) – Missing supplement, 4 pages (‘Supplement No 4 of Your Valiant Big Book of Football’)
Valiant #192 (1966-06-04) – Missing supplement, 4 pages (‘Supplement No 6 of Your Valiant Big Book of Football’)
Valiant #610 (1974-10-19) – Missing supplement, 8 pages (‘Mytek the Mighty’ part 3). Furthermore, 2 pages, probably ads/columns(?) are missing.
Valiant #613 (1974-11-09) – 3 missing pages of ads/columns/one-page humour strips.
Valiant #668 (1975-12-14) – 1 missing page of ads/columns/one-page humour strips (page 30 and 31 are duplicates).

Thanks Jacko, i will save these 3 upgrades for the next update along with the ones from Stripfan64, to make sure no one miss them.

Thanks! That’s two of the list. Yes, the ones with four pages missing are the most difficult to spot. At first glance, with a page count of a multiple 4, they seem okay.

Re: Valiant #13 [1962-12-29].
Previously, I thought it was just something cut out from pages 15+16 which affected the ‘To Glory We Steer’ story in this issue.
However, I have now discovered that pages 15-18 are the same as pages 15-18 in Valiant #2 [1962-10-13]. Well, almost. Oddly, in Valiant #2, pages 15+16 are intact with nothing cut out of them. Based on the continuing storyline of ‘To Glory We Steer’ from Valiant #1, I would say the 4 pages belong to Valiant #2 ane we are actually missing 4 pages (pg 15-18) from Valiant #13.

I scanned that issue and I’ve just checked my original scans and those are definitely the pages in that copy. All those with frames cut out were from the same source. I wonder if the centre pages became detached and the pages from No2 replaced. No2 wasn’t part of the set so I can’t check to see if the missing pages got swapped.

Going through all the Valiants, I corrected quite a few files (page rotations, sequence of pages of supplements, merging two-page spreads, removing duplicate pages). New versions of those issues can be found on https://mega.nz/folder/3N8Wjajb#Hl5qpalBOxDWc6_5jcDu1A
