![TV Century 21 (1965-69) 1-242 complete run. No 1 wfg Special Agent Identicode Decoder, No 155 wfg Captain Scarlet Album. Gerry Anderson's TV Century 21 achieved iconic status during its 1960s print run. This was largely due to the influence and deployment of the greatest artists of their day in its production. Frank Bellamy and Don Harley drew Thunderbirds, Mike Noble and Don Lawrence took turns at Fireball XL5 and Ron Embleton and Turner drew The Daleks, Stingray and Captain Scarlet. Even Dan Dare's legendary creator Frank Hampson drew Lady Penelope in issues 40-45 and the first few episodes of Fireball XL5. To our knowledge, this is the only complete run to come up for auction and the last 6 issues are notoriously hard to find | From The Woodard Archive of British Comics | No 1 has cream/light tan cover and pages [vg+], the free gift has a Special Agent's name & address neatly filled in. No 2 [vg], No 3 [fn-], 4-17 [fn/fn+], No 156: 2 ins lower b/cover cut-out [gd/vg], balance issues 18-242 [fn/vfn/nm] (242)](https://downthetubes.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/TV21-1-242-Complete-1-105x85.jpg)
