'''''[[Treasure Trail (comic story)|Treasure Trail]]''''' was a [[1976]] [[Fourth Doctor]]/[[Sarah Jane Smith|Sarah Jane]] ''[[TV Comic]]'' story that was a pure historical set in the waning days of [[World War II]]. Although many other ''[[Doctor Who]]'' stories were set during the Second World War, ''Treasure Trail'' was unusual for portraying the [[Italy|Italian]] resistance, and was almost certainly the only ''Doctor Who'' story in any medium to depict the [[Nazi]] plunder of [[Europe]]an art.

Widths of the pictures must be multiplied by 1.33 to derive the heights of the pictures.  Oherwise, the dimensions will be "off". It's not the exact mathematical relationship between the two sides, but it works well enough, considering covers are not precisely scanned.

Stripped for Action!
Animated Scarecrows.jpg

The Night Walkers concluded the tale of the Second Doctor living in Time Lord-enforced exile in London for a few months prior to becoming the Third Doctor. Much of the story stressed how he had actually become a celebrity and was appearing on a television game show when the Time Lords finally caught up with him to impose the final punishment mentioned — but never quite seen — in his last televised story.
