The Sea. UK licensee of "The World Around Us" (Gilberton, 1958 series). Continued in the UK after the cancellation of the US title. As there was nothing available, this issue evidently did not reprint previously used material from the US publisher, but did publish some unused material, including "The Lone Voyager" (Jack Kirby & Dick Ayers). This seven page story features the tale of Joshua Slocum, the first man to single-handedly sail around the world. 6.5" x 10.25". 52 pages. Full color.
