Description

This comic book is volume 17 of the Lucky Luke series, titled "On the Dalton's Trail." The easily recognizable cover features a vibrant blue background with a yellow band at the top, displaying the title in red letters and the character of Lucky Luke. Rantanplan, the dog, is also visible, sniffing a bone in front of a metal trash can, behind which the four Dalton brothers are hiding, illustrated in their characteristic humorous style. The signature "Morris" appears on the right, confirming the original illustrator.

The cover displays the "DUPUIS" publisher's logo at the bottom, typical of 1980s Franco-Belgian editions. The spine and edge are visible in the photo, showing a white hardcover binding, classic for this type of album. No major defects are visible on the front; the surface appears glossy and well-preserved, with no obvious signs of creases, chips, or stains on the photographed area.

The graphic style is typical of European humorous comic strips, with bright colors and sharp black outlines. The illustration highlights the comedic aspect of the series, with Lucky Luke's exaggerated posture and Rantanplan's clumsiness. The Daltons are depicted in profile, stacked behind the trash can, an emblematic graphic detail of the series.

The number "17" is clearly indicated on the cover, facilitating identification within the chronology of Lucky Luke's adventures. The entire visible front is in very good apparent condition, with the lamination's shine well-preserved. No annotations, marks, or printing defects are visible on the presented cover.
