LEAD - TINTIN "BRIC À BRAC" - B/W VERSION

In the black and white version of Cigars of the Pharaoh (Plate 22, panel C2), after narrowly escaping drowning, Tintin and his faithful canine companion meet a new character, the elderly Oliveira da Figueira. This dynamic Portuguese merchant is the perfect embodiment of the Camelot stereotype. His sales pitches are so persuasive that the two castaways leave with their arms full of unusual objects and gadgets of all kinds.
