AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Very beautiful old set around the Tintin universe, consisting of 6 pieces from different periods: 4 Tintin journals, 1 ancient issue of Le Petit Vingtième from 1938, and 1 Tintin calendar from 1954.
The centerpiece of this set is undoubtedly Le Petit Vingtième from 1938, a historic publication that is particularly emblematic of the early years of the Tintin universe. Its age, its typical presentation of the era, and the handsome presence of its illustrations make it a particularly appealing piece within the lot. A document of nearly 90 years, today sought after by lovers of old publications related to Hergé and Tintin.
The set also includes an old Tintin newspaper from 1946, accompanied by three other issues shown in the photographs. The covers offer a striking visual presence, with illustrations and colors that have remained particularly attractive given their age.
The lot as a whole is in very good condition for documents of this period. The colors are still vivid, bright, and well contrasted, especially the reds, yellows and blues, which give a lot of éclat to the various covers.
Note regarding one of the Tintin newspapers: certain old marks of undetermined origin are visible in the photographs. They may visually resemble traces of adhesive tape, glue, or smudges, but they are not tape nor an adhesive repair. Their exact origin is not known and the photographs allow them to be observed precisely.
The Tintin calendar from 1954 is preserved in two parts. These parts fit together perfectly when brought close. It was intentionally left this way rather than repaired or reinforced with tape, in order to preserve the document in its current state.
The set is in very good overall condition considering its age. Some small defects or signs of time may naturally be present. The numerous photographs allow a precise appreciation of the condition of each piece and form an integral part of the description.
A beautiful collection covering several important periods in the history of Tintin, with a central piece being a 1938 Le Petit Vingtième, completed by ancient Tintin publications and an interesting 1954 calendar. A particularly decorative lot and representative of Hergé’s graphical universe.
Carefully prepared and protected shipping, adapted to the fragility and age of these documents.
