'''''The Dr Who Annual'' 1968''' was the third [[Doctor Who annual|''Doctor Who'' annual]] to be released, and the first to feature the [[Second Doctor]]. It was unusually anachronistic upon publication. Despite being released after the arrival of [[Victoria Waterfield]] on television, it featured [[the TARDIS]] team that existed for only one [[serial]] about a year before — that of the Second Doctor, [[Ben Jackson|Ben]] and [[Polly Wright|Polly]]. It was released in [[September (releases)|September]] [[1967 (releases)|1967]].<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20141114163608/https://doctorwho.org.nz/archive/tsv42/annuals.html ''The Annuals - A Collector's Guide'' on doctorwho.org.nz via the Wayback Machine]</ref>
