Bimbo was a British comic book magazine aimed at children in nursery school.[1] It ran from 1961 until 1972[1] and was published by D.C. Thomson & Co. The magazine was named after its main feature Bimbo, which was a comic strip about a little boy.[1]
The magazine was comparable to the magazine Little Star. Bimbo annuals continued to be published until the 1980s.
