... More new beautiful Belgian stamp issues... a sheet called "Great Women of Belgian Comic Strips"... showing five exceptional female characters: Bianca Castafiore, Miss Jannie, Natacha, Yoko Tsuno and Aunt Sidonia... and it’s 50 years since the first Natacha comic strip was released... this album "The Castafiore Emerald" is from the series of 24 comic albums created by Belgian cartoonist Georges Remi, who wrote under the name HergĂ©... one of the most important and influential comics creators in history... with great matching stamp showing Bianca Castafiore and special First day postmark👍... HĂ©Ă©Ă©Ă©l erg bedankt Johan!!¯\_(ツ)_/¯




The Castafiore Emerald is the twenty-first strip of The Adventures of Tintin. 

It is the story about Bianca Castafiore's prized Emerald going missing while she pays a surprise visit to Marlinspike Hall. (the mansion that Captain Haddock reclaims in the story Red Rackham's Treasure) 

The Adventures of Tin Tin was one of the most popular European comics of the 20thC and has been published in more than 70 languages with over 200 million copies sold.
