Description from the seller
Tintin & Snowy – Exclusive Chiba Bank Promotional Set (5 Pieces)
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a complete set of five unique cup and saucer sets featuring the iconic characters from Hergé’s "The Adventures of Tintin."
These sets were produced exclusively for Chiba Bank as promotional gifts and were never available for retail sale, making them a highly sought-after find for collectors of both Tintin memorabilia and exclusive Japanese corporate "not-for-sale" (NFS) items.
Item Details
Each cup features a distinct color-coded illustration of Tintin or Snowy (Milou), paired with a corresponding letter icon. The minimalist, clean design reflects a classic Japanese aesthetic combined with the timeless Franco-Belgian comic style.
• Quantity: 5 Cups and 5 Saucers (Complete Set).
• Characters Included: Multiple depictions of Tintin and Snowy in various poses.
• Markings: The CHIBA BANK logo is featured on the back of each cup and saucer, certifying its authenticity and exclusive origin.
• Condition: Excellent (Given as a bank gift/never for sale).
Dimensions
• Cup Diameter: Approximately 8.8 cm
• Cup Height: Approximately 7.3 cm
Why is this special?
Unlike mass-produced Tintin merchandise, these items were distributed in limited quantities to bank clients in Japan. Finding all five color variations together in a single set is increasingly difficult. Whether you are a dedicated Tintinophile or a collector of rare advertising porcelain, this set is a perfect conversation piece.
