There were 46 books in the original series. Stories: This first annual included several stories from the original Daily Express comic strip, such as “Rupert and the Wise Goat,”“Rupert and the Old Man of the Sea,” and “Rupert and the Little Woodman.” There are also a few human characters in the stories, such as the Professor (who lives in a castle with his servant, Bodkin), Tiger Lily (a Chinese girl), her father "the Conjuror," and several less frequently occurring characters such as Sailor Sam, Gaffer Jarge, Captain Binnacle, the Sage of Um (who is seen travelling in a magical upside down umbrella) and Rollo, the Gypsy boy. There is also a recurring Merboy.

He said: "It's a bit like the stamp or coin market where, due to a printing mistake, the withdrawn and rarer mistake is worth far more than the genuine article." Viewing will be available on June 15 and 16 from 9am to 7pm, and from 9am on the morning of the sale. But in 1973, after a dozen copies of the brown-faced annual had been printed, the newspaper's editor stopped the presses and changed the cover so Rupert had a white face - without consulting illustrator Bestall.
