SPIROU - Journal Album, No. 171 - Lot 186

SPIROU - Journal Album, No. 171 Dupuis, 1982. Large quarto hardcover, cloth-bound spine, color-illustrated front cover, 600 pages. A very interesting collection from the 171st Spirou Magazine Album, marking the launch of the new format. The cover, which is particularly clear and highly representative of Dupuis’s graphic style from the early 1980s, features Spirou and one of his companions in a lively and instantly recognizable composition. The caption “4 complete albums” and the phrase “dozens of gags and complete stories” enhance its editorial appeal and make it a particularly attractive volume for both collectors and readers. This issue holds additional interest due to its status as the first volume of this series.
