>I'm seeking advice on what to do with a publisher currently not in the
>database -- UK publisher Picture Story Publications.
>
>In brief:
>
>The digest-size comic "Red Rose Romances" was published in 1959 by Picture
>Story Publications of 47a Beak Street, London, W.1.
>The issue and the publisher are not listed in any of the usual indexes that
>I have access to -- including Gifford's Complete Catalogue of British
>Comics. And there is virtually noting on the internet.
>There is some indirect indication on the internet that Picture Story
>Publications was the publisher of Boyfriend, the UK music magazine/comic for
>girls (http://www.comics.org/series/66906/).
>However, Boyfriend is usually listed as published by City Magazines, with no
>mention of Picture Story Publications.

> Information on the comic is available here:

>
> For detail, see my comments in the change history at

>
> Should Picture Story Publications be a new Master Publisher? or
