Poster Lotus n 50 (1934)

This magnificent poster reproduces the 50th cover of Le Petit Vingtième dedicated to the Blue Lotus. Considered one of Hergé's finest creations, the story of Tintin's Adventures in the Far East was published in black and white in the Belgian newspaper's children’s supplement between 9th August 1934 and 17th October 1935. It marked a turning point in Hergé's career and sealed his friendship with the sculptor Chang Chong-chen.
