Issue 236 16th December 1987 Smash Hits started a Fact Box section. 

 

Periodically the magazine would print a small amount of information (In a Box) on a particular person (or group of people) from the Pop, Rock and sometime Sport world.

​

This continued till Issue 330 dated 24th July 1991.

​

This page showcases the Fact Box from 1990.

​

Please Note - It was notorious that the numbering system was not always consistent.  Therefore I have added these in Date Order.
