Wanted: Tintin books with the original art (facsimile editions)

#1 · Posted: 12 Aug 2008 21:09

I am looking to get hold of some of the Tintin albums but with the original art that from when it was first published.
Is this quite costly and difficult?
Thankyou for your time.

It shouldn't be, depending on what exactly you are looking for.
Some of the original stories that were published in black and white have been published in English (assuming you are looking for them in English).
Those are: "Tintin in the Congo", "Tintin in America", "Cigars of the Pharaoh" and "The Blue Lotus".
These can be bought from The Tintin Shop in the UK (who also mail abroad) or from some online retailers, like Amazon.

Some colour English-language facsimiles are also available (more will be soon) and are available from the same outlets.

I'm based in the U.K., and yes, I would like them in English.

Thanks for your help, I'll have a look around!
