Tardi - Mine de Plomb / Chiures de Gomme - Original Edition - Luxury head-to-tail box set (Futuropolis, 1986)

A superb collection by Jacques Tardi published by Futuropolis in 1986.

This art book in a square format compiles the author's sketchbooks, studies, illustrations and rare comics in an original editorial concept in a "tête-bêche" format (Mine de Plomb on one side, Chiures de Gomme on the other).

This is the prestigious deluxe Original Edition, limited to only 400 numbered and signed copies.

Characteristics and condition:

The set is in very good overall condition, with a few light wear defects normal for its age (on the box and the cloth bindings).

The interiors of the volumes are in superb condition, very fresh and clean. The original protective leaf (serpente) as well as the decorative inner mosaic are indeed present.

The original-color self-portrait print, signed in ink by Tardi and numbered 267 / 400, is included (sold unframed, with faint mounting marks on the outer white margins).

The numerous photos provided form an integral part of the description so you can appreciate the detailed condition of this magnificent lot.

A complete collector’s edition with all its original pieces, perfect for collectors of Tardi’s work.
