I hope this is hard enough for everyone.

Where in the books does Snowy where a beard (false)?

Book and page number, please ...

Think...think... Ah, I have this mental image of Tintin dressed in a bellboy uniform holding a gun to someone (Bobby Smiles?) in Tintin in America. I think Snowy is standing by his side wearing what appears to be a false black beard with no moustache. However, I haven't got the page number because I'm at work. It's too nice outside and I'm chained to a desk... So please excuse my (probably wrong) guess and if someone wants an easy point on the back of that info, be my guest :-)

I'm also a wee bit bored at work also!

So if I understand you right you're not after a point here, Ranko?

You are working as what? Well, i'm just a Secondary 2 Student, facing algebra problems. Well, my answer is that simmilar to Ranko's but in detailed.

Snowy was wearing a black beard with a black wig when Tintin was pointing a gun at an anoymous gang leader of a mob sindiket in Tintin In America pg 055, frame 008.

Exactly right, tintinspartan! I believe you get the point and next question setting; since Ranko said, "...if someone wants an easy point on the back of that info, be my guest :-)". Ranko was close, he just didn't provide the in depth information.

All over to you now, tintinspartan.

Correct, I didn't meet the criteria for the point. I have remembered that it was Grynde and not Smiles T holds the gun to though.

Onwards and upwards.
