Description from the seller
“The Unicorn,” with its crew of pirates, comes into view of a small island…
With one of the Loiseau brothers’ pink jackets instead of blue…
The Secret of the Unicorn - “The Making Of” - Page 42, 4 successive colour prints (1949)
To frame!
There are virtually no old prints of “The Secret of the Unicorn” similar to those that had been produced in the late 1940s with “The Crab with the Golden Claws,” so that Casterman’s salespeople responsible for international development could showcase the print quality of the Tintin albums.
This lot is therefore exceptional, since it consists of different colour printing phases (1949) of a page from “The Secret of the Unicorn,” in 3 A4 pages, which present the following steps:
1. Yellow printing
2. Yellow printing + red and purple colours
3. Previous printing + black colour for the text and borders
4. Final printing with various blue colours
Starting price: 1 euro.
