Annual 1971

 

Free Gifts - 1971

Through out the run of Look-in there were a number of Free Gifts given away with the magazine.  This is a breakdown opf those free gifts for 1971.

Issue 1

9th January 1971 - Magpie studio part 1

The very first issue, 9th January 1971, contained a card with lots of cut out objects / people to make a Magpie studio, 'Magpie' was ITV's rival to 'Blue Peter', and was very much in a similar vein. 

 

This gift enabled you to be a part of the studio, However, the
drawback was that part of the studio was on the middle pages so you had to wreck your magazine to make the studio!

Issue 2

16th January 1971 - Magpie studio part 2

A second card with more parts to the Magpie studio was given away free with issue 2, 16th January 1971,

Issue 3

23rd January 1971 -

Look-in Star Wheel

In issue 3, 23rd January 1971, Look-in 'Star wheel' was given away, an item which contained 12 picture clues to TV stars of the time, when you pointed
an arrow to the clue, the star appeared in a window on the wheel. 

 

On the left you can see Cheryl Burfield, and the wheel pointing to a picture of someone jumping through
something.  Cheryl played Liz in 'Timeslip, the picture was of someone leaping through the 'Time Barrier'

In the 18th September 1971 issue a booklet was given away, 'The Look-in Superstars Television Album'
was a book that contained lots of information about stars of the day. 

 

It also contained spaces to stick star stamps which were given away in this and thenext three issues.
