There have been several facsimile versions of beano #1 produced over the years, and it's almost certainly one of them that you've got. They're mostly on newer, better quality paper stock than you'd get in a genuine 73 year old comic, which would probably be yellowed and brittle, and often the interior pages are black & white where they would have been two-tone.
