About the series
The Rupert Adventure Series ran for 50 issues from 1948 to 1963, published by the Daily Express. These small-format comic annuals collected the year’s newspaper strips featuring the beloved, gentle bear and his friends in the idyllic, whimsical world of Nutwood. The series is most closely associated with creator Mary Tourtel and her successor, Alfred Bestall, whose detailed, watercolor-style artwork and rhyming, gentle storytelling defined the character for generations. It matters as the primary, enduring format that established Rupert Bear as a cherished icon of British children’s comics.
