Hello,

While cleaning up my attic, I fell on an old Tintin album.

I suspect it is a first edition. Can someone confirm this with the pictures below? If so, given its condition, approximately how much would this album be worth?

* The cover page is a bit torn at the bottom (as you can see in the picture).

* Top right of the cover page and on the first page has a brown stain (see photo). On the second page it is already half the size and after that it is no longer there.

* As far as the other condition is concerned (cover, colors, blisters, ...) I have no idea how to do this interpret

Thanks in advance!

Vince

It is indeed the first edition and the condition is fair to good. Value around 150 euros.

Nice, thank you!

I have found 4 other Tintin albums, but I still have to find out which edition it is (I suspect some 1st edition). So it's a nice find.

Since I'm less interested in it myself: where do I sell it best? Here on Catawiki? Or does someone know a merchant where I can put all of these in one go?

Thanks,

Vince

You can try it at the Catawiki auction.
