David Britton, Nicholas Hill and Howard Smith were involved in arranging a number of exhibitions throughout the country in 2000 to mark 50 years since EAGLE was first published on 14th April 1950. The response was tremendous!

As a result, in November 2000, EAGLE EXHIBITIONS was created as an informal, non-profit making group, providing a range of exhibitions from a single display cabinet to the whole floor of a museum or gallery. While focusing on Eagle, the exhibitions also aid in placing the fictional adventures within the context of the aspirations of science, technology and the British space programme following the end of the Second World War.

Our mission is simple ...
... to arrange nostalgic, educational and fun exhibitions for all ages and to introduce a new generation to Eagle , the “best comic ever”, and to a glimpse of the culture of the 1950's in which it flourished.

Dan Dare has proved to be the most popular choice, however we are also specialists in arranging more comprehensive shows incorporating all of Eagle (and Girl, Swift and Robin) or individual characters such as PC49, Jeff Arnold, Luck of the Legion or simply an exhibition dedicated to the artists and scriptwriters of Eagle.

We rely on sponsorship, donations and where approriate a small entry fee to cover our costs.
