Description: Expanded edition of The TARDIS Tales Collection, a collection of Doctor Who cartoons and artwork originally published in fanzine form by the New Zealand Doctor Who Fan Club in 1993. Cover blurb: "...it’s time to zip out of the chicken suit." From his humble first appearance in a local newspaper in 1977 to his final adventure, Missing...
