:) he already had the hair.
It's weirdly difficult to find pictures of Walter the Softie, have the Beano tried to erase their homophobic past?

I do find it an interesting record of social historyhow comics were full of "playful scamps" that all kids wanted to be like, which today would be regarded as little shits who should have asbos at the very least for breaking windows, stealing things, homophobic bullying and the like. (hence my picture yesterday)

And the slippers they'd get, don't forget those.I tried finding images of slippers - i.e. Dennis getting a smack for being naughty - but nothing, maybe due to it being unacceptable today.
Your picture was a piece of class though and a good point well made!

There is a picture of Beryl the Peril being slippered by her dad in Google image search. Which sounds really creepy when I write it.
