Le Chevalier Blanc - 2x C - EO/Ré - 2 Album - 1956/1983

Funcken – Le Chevalier Blanc – EO 1956 with Point Tintin + BéDingue edition 1983 – 2 albums

Nice lot of 2 albums of Le Chevalier Blanc by Fred Funcken / Liliane & Fred Funcken, notably including the sought-after original Lombard edition from 1956.

1. Le Chevalier Blanc – Fred Funcken – EO 1956

Original edition – Editions du Lombard – 1956.

Hardcover album from the Lombard Collection, with the characteristic red cloth spine.

An especially interesting copy for the collector as it still has its Point Tintin.

First yellow cover on the Chevalier Blanc on horseback.

The title page bears the mention:

Fred Funcken – Le Chevalier Blanc – 1st episode
Les Éditions du Lombard – 24, rue du Lombard, Bruxelles

Album in good to very good condition for its age. Presence of signs of use, rubbing and small marks on the corners, headbands and covers. The interior also shows a few traces of time. The whole remains quite presentable for a Lombard album dating from 1956.

EO with Point Tintin: a copy that has become considerably harder to find complete.

2. Le Chevalier Blanc followed by Le Nectar Magique – L. & F. Funcken

Éditions du Lombard – BéDingue Collection – 1983.

Large hardcover album bringing together Le Chevalier Blanc and Le Nectar Magique, with green cover and yellow cloth spine.

Copyright Éditions du Lombard, Brussels, 1983.

Copy in very good general condition, showing only light signs of handling and aging. An interesting set for collectors

A very nice contrast between the true original edition of 1956 with its Point Tintin and the large Lombard reissue published nearly thirty years later in the BéDingue Collection.

A particularly interesting lot for collectors of Fred and Liliane Funcken, Lombard originals, Journal Tintin and classic Franco-Belgian comics.

Both albums are sold together.

The many photos are an integral part of the description. They allow precise appreciation of the condition of the two albums.
