In the Netherlands 26 issues of children´s magazine "Jamin Junior" were published in 1972 and 1973. Dutch sweets, icecream and candy shop "Jamin" issued these magazines in their shop, they were sold for 25 cents (about 10 pence or € 0,12) and later on for 30 cents. Most of the articles and comic strip stories were translations from the UK Look-in, like Freewheelers, On the Buses, Timeslip and Please Sir! But there were Original Dutch contents as well, like the stories of Dutch TV series Floris starring Rutger Hauer.

From the 10th of January a two sided leaflet was issued announcing the start of the magazine from January 24th, 1972. The front side had a colour photo of Catweazle. You can find a scan of the leaflet here:

Issue #2 of Jamin Junior contained an article called "Onzichtbaar? verdwenen? of... overal aanwezig?" by Thera Esling. The front cover of issue #2 has the same colour photo of Catweazle as the aforementioned leaflet. You can find the scan here, along with the transcript of the article:

From issue # 8 to the last issue #26 there were comic strip stories of Catweazle printed in the magazine. They were translated from the Original stories from Gerry Embleton and colourized for Jamin Junior.
