SPIROU - Journal album, n°100 - Lot 10

SPIROU - Journal album, n°100 Dupuis, 1965. Large in-4 hardback, cloth spine, first cover illustrated in color. Particularly sought-after jubilee issue, corresponding to the 100ᵉ Album du Journal Spirou, published on the occasion of this major milestone for the famous Dupuis publishing magazine. The instantly recognizable cover celebrates this hundredth volume with a festive composition dominated by a large "100" occupying the entire field, treated in spectacular typography. The drawing, attributed to André Franquin, humorously features the emblematic characters of the Spirou et Fantasio universe, in a spirit that is both commemorative and resolutely graphic. This volume is a must-have for any collector of the series, both for its symbolic significance and its decorative appeal. No. 100 is traditionally more sought-after than current issues from the same period, especially when it forms part of an almost continuous series.
