CENTURY 21 PUBLISHING: GENERAL BOOKS AND ANNUALS CHECKLIST

Century 21 Publishing was the book publishing arm of Gerry Anderson's Century 21 organisation. It's best known amongst us Sixties kids for it's range of hardbacked annuals connected to our favourite TV shows like Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet and Joe 90. They also brought us the fabulous Project SWORD Annual in 1968.

However, Century 21 Publishing also brought out a range of books and annuals about more general fayre such as pop music and football, together with licenced characters such as Topo Gigio. They also published four childrens' bible stories! This is a pictorial checklist for collectors of these more general books and will be added to as and when. The famous TV shows will not be covered since there is tons about them out there already. Less famous ones like The Champions are here. As always, corrections and additions are always welcomed [pictures from online shops over the last few years].
