    Popswop

    Share
    Facebook Twitter Pinterest WhatsApp Reddit Email

    The weekly British pop magazine Popswop was first published in October 1972, primarily aimed at the teenage girl market.

    In addition to full-colour posters of all the teenybop and glam heroes such as Bowie, Slade, Donny Osmond, Gary Glitter and The Sweet the magazine gave away 7″ flexidiscs, and iron-on t-shirt transfers.

    Popswop merged with Record Mirror in September 1974 to become the catchily titled (!) Record & Popswop Mirror but ‘standalone’ Popswop annuals continued to be published until December 1975.
