Dug this out when going through a load of stuff recently. It was sent to me more than ten years ago by an old mate who lives in France, who'd spotted it on a market stall (he has a keen eye for sweating boy scouts grappling with unruly thumpers). Strangely enough, there's no Tintin strip in the mag, from July 1964. I think it ran for years, having spotted
this site. Lovely artwork by

loved the illustration style in Tintin, especially the vehicles. They really paid attention to detail rather than the generic motorbike-ish shapes that a lot of illustrators who don't particularly care for bikes turn out
