An authentic vintage issue of the iconic Tintin magazine, No. 556, published in June 1959, during the golden age of European comics led by Hergé.

This issue features a striking noir-style cover centered on Ric Hochet, with a bold graphic composition in black and red tones. The design incorporates stylized postage stamp portraits, reinforcing the investigative theme (“Enquête chez les timbrés”), giving the cover a strong mid-century detective aesthetic highly appreciated by collectors.

Inside, the magazine offers a rich and varied selection of content:

  • Episodes from Tintin au Tibet
  • Ric Hochet detective story
  • Adventure comics: Oumpah-Pah by René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo
  • Illustrated articles (including naval and technological subjects)

Published by Le Lombard, this issue is a fine example of 1950s European comic culture, blending storytelling, journalism, and graphic design. Its darker, more mature cover style and inclusion of Ric Hochet make it especially appealing for collectors seeking variety within the Tintin series.
