Lily was the last title of publications aimed at female readers that followed in the wake of precedents such as Florita, Mis chicas and Azucena. With it we close this review of women's youth magazines of the 20th century.
It was on the market from 1970 to 1985 thanks to the reference publishing house for children and young adult publications, Bruguera, which published almost eight hundred issues. Its characteristic was that you could read comics imported from abroad -as it happened in the case of ‘Esther y su mundo,’ and others from England, Italy and France, which showed more open and progressive societies and others much more traditional and ruled by censorship, which were still in existence at the time.
It is necessary to take a look at it to understand how this mixture of plots and styles of stories, aimed mainly at the female adolescent audience, was possible. In the mid 70's, the first steps of openness and freedom were being taken, although they were still monitored by a censorship that was becoming less and less strong.
