BERNARD DUNNE'S CENTURY 21 PUBLISHING GENERAL BOOKS CHECKLIST AND RESEARCH

This winter I have been in correspondence with reader Bernard Dunne, who has a fabulous collection of non-space-related Century 21 Publishing books.

Bernard has kindly shared images of his book covers, together with information he has compiled about further C21 publications.

This includes a wonderful up-to-date checklist of non-space titles, which you will find at the end of this post [it does include Project SWORD however].

All the following images have been kindly provided by Bernard Dunne.

Bernard's research perfectly compliments my own listing published on the blog previously
http://projectswordtoys.blogspot.com/2013/08/century-21-publishing-general-books-and.html 

At some point I will merge the 2 posts.

Some of Bernard's images are scans and as such are much better images than those in my previous posting.

Publication years will be added soon.

Enjoy!

'Century 21' were given merchandise licenses for 'The Prisoner' & 'Man in a Suitcase' (and didn't do anything about it), but 'The Persuaders!' Dutch Monty bubblegum cards (+ album) are (c) Century 21.

GENERAL CENTURY 21 PUBLISHING BOOKS ALPHABETICAL CHECKLIST BY BERNARD DUNNE

June 29th 2019

Footnotes:

The first Monkees Annual has lots of (c) notes for another company but the only (c) for Century 21 is on one page beneath an advert for 'Lady Penelope' Comic.

The Animals at the Zoo book one is (c) Century 21 Merchandising rather than Century 21 Publishing.

Topo Gigio The Little Country Cottage was originally published, in the same format, by Bonanza Books in 1965 and later Century 21 in 1967. The same could apply to At The Circus.

Possibly related but not Century 21:
