About this product
Product Information
The young reporter Tintin and his faithful dog Snowy set off on assignment to Africa. But a sinister stowaway follows their every move and seems set on ensuring they come to a sticky end. Tintin and Snowy encounter witch doctors, hostile tribesmen, crocodiles, boa constrictors and numerous other wild animals before solving the mystery and getting their story. First published in book form in 1931 (in black & white only), Tintin in the Congo reflects the colonial attitudes of that period in its depiction of African people. Herge himself admitted that he was influenced by the bourgeois, paternalistic stereotypes of the period. This is also true of the treatment of big-game hunting and the attitude towards animals. All copies of the book will be displayed with a belly-band advertising its content.

- a***a (276)- Feedback left by buyer.More than a year agoVerified purchaseNever received this order. Sent afew messages to seller to try find out why? No reply. Raised an claim through Ebay but said still wanted order but ended up getting part refund, not full amount!? Again no communication from seller? Or reason for part refund instead of full refund. Very poor customer service & no communication. Wouldn't buy from them again. Avoid.

- d***5 (488)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseArrived well packed and just as described - but without CD which should have been inside the outer cover. It was obviously an oversight by seller. I contacted seller who immediately gave me full refund - within 2 minutes of my email! - and told me to keep the book. This is exceptional service and went above and beyond what is expected. Thank You so much 👍Teeline for Journalists,Dawn Johnston (#132647011039)
