AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

The illustrated magazine presented here is a copy of "nouveau Tintin" (new Tintin), recognizable by its bright, graphic cover. The title "tintin" appears in large yellow letters, topped by the word "nouveau" (new) in black, with the subtitle "hebdomadaire des jeunes de 7 à 77 ans" (weekly for young people aged 7 to 77). The cover features a dynamic comic-strip illustration, typical of Franco-Belgian magazines from the second half of the 20th century. It depicts characters in motion, engaged in an action scene, with the main hero, dressed in a light blue suit, confronting several adversaries. The vivid red background accentuates the dramatic tension and the retro aesthetic of the visual.

The tagline "DOMINO contre JUSTICIAS!!" (DOMINO against JUSTICIAS!!) occupies the bottom of the cover, in clear, black capital letters. This issue therefore highlights an adventure of the character Domino, identifiable by his costume and his central presence in the composition. The overall layout, typography, and graphics of the cover bear witness to a vintage style, probably from the 1970s to 1980s, characteristic of the classic editions of Tintin magazine.

The visible spine shows slight yellowing, typical of old magazines, and the cover is in good condition with no major visible snags on the front. The corners appear slightly blunted, but the overall impression remains very clear, with crisp colors and an unfaded drawing. No major defects are visible on the front in the provided photo.

The magazine is photographed standing on a lace-patterned doily, placed on a wooden table, with a bookshelf of old books in the background, emphasizing the retro character of the object. The presentation highlights the decorative aspect and graphic interest of the cover.

The cover page shows no handwritten marks, labels, or annotations. The inscriptions and logo are clear and faithful to the iconography of Tintin magazine of the time. The mention "hebdomadaire des jeunes de 7 à 77 ans" is clearly visible, in accordance with the tradition of the original editions.

Condition

This magazine is second-hand and sold as is. The visible cover is in good overall condition, with slightly worn corners and a spine showing a beginning of patina. The colors remain vivid and the visual is well preserved.
